Title:
  Unity lock screen bypassed with debsign password prompt

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

Bug description:
  1) Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

  2) unity 7.2.0+14.04.20140423-0ubuntu1.2

  3) What I expected to happen:

  While the lock screen was active, and trying to type in the password
  prompt in the lock screen, my input would be written in that password
  prompt.

  4) What happened instead

  I could not see anything being written in the password field in the
  lock screen. Only after typing a wrong password two-three times, the
  lock screen password field was able to receive input.

  Further investigation showed, that the keyboard input instead ended up
  in a password prompt debsign spawned while the lock screen was active
  - a place where it under no circumstance should be able to end up
  while the lock screen is active.

  I'm not able to condense the bug report right now, but it seems quite
  serious to me, so I'd rather report it immediately.
