  Password typed to unlock the screen is sent to underlying Chrome

Bug description:
  After upgrading to Unity version 7.2.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1 on
  Trusty, the lockscreen sometimes fails to take the keyboard focus away
  from Chrome.

  This might happen if there's a text selection in Chrome, and also when
  resuming after suspend.

  It doesn't always happen, as this is a race condition, but it's easy
  to reproduce by selecting the location bar in Chrome and then locking
  the screen.

  Workaround: click on any indicator in the upper right corner, and
  close the menu. After that, keyboard input is sent to the lockscreen
  again.
