Title:
  Screensaver leaks password key-presses through to applications

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is similar to the bug described in:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1306970

  But as that is marked fixed, perhaps this is something different.

  A few times, I have been unable to enter my password until I had clicked in the top right corner, and back into the password box.
  I hadn't suspected anything serious, until today when I tried to log in, and eventually got in, seeing that my password had been set to my web browser.

  In addition, I've also had instances where I've had to enter the
  password twice, and instances when I've come to the computer and it
  appeared not to be locked, until I moved the mouse, and the lock
  screen displayed.
