After running into several other situations where one of these
logout/lock screen dialogs got wedged and I had to reboot, and after
losing all my work several times because the default ctrl-alt-del action
is to log out rather than lock the screen as it has been in Windows
forever, I just set ctrl-alt-del to lock the screen with no prompts or
dialogs. So I guess you can close this though I still think this area of
ubuntu is poorly implemented

Title:
  the lock screen/log out window is stuck rendering desktop unusable

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  After locking the screen via ctrl-alt-del, upon unlocking it, the "Hi
  $user, you have open files that you might want to save before logging
  out" is stuck in the middle of the screen. It will not close or allow
  typing in any window. The only way out is to kill the X server or
  reboot the machine losing all open work.
