Is that what you're saying?
It's not as serious as what you reported in the 2018 thread. It's just an occasional glitch, not easily reproducible, with a trivial workaround. I only mention it because once in a while, someone sees something like it and freaks out, thinking the computer is locked up or whatever. They don't realize they can just hit the Enter key and get a fresh login prompt, and all is fine.
