This bug may be a security issue, because i had the following
experience:
I was working in a terminal window with elevated privileges when i
locked my computer to go for a meeting.
When i came back i couldn't log in because LightDM seemd not to capture
my keyboard. After some clicking around and trying i finally could log
in again and saw that everything i typed was entered in the terminal
window as plain text.
I hope this gets solved soon.
