Title: Virtualbox steals password from lock screen Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I just experienced some really troubling behavior from the Ubuntu lock screen: I had been working in a VirtualBox virtual machine (running Windows 10, if that matters) and after being away from the computer for a while, Ubuntu locked the screen. When I entered my password and confirmed it with return, the lock screen went away and I was surprised to see my password in a terminal I had had open in the virtual machine. When I tried to close the VirtualBox window, Ubuntu went back to the lock screen. I was not using full-screen mode in VirtualBox. Here are the installed versions of the relevant packages: virtualbox-5.0: 5.0.20-106931~Ubuntu~xenial gnome-screensaver: 3.6.1-7ubuntu5 lightdm: 1.19.5-0ubuntu1 This happened on Ubuntu 16.10 with an x86_64 4.8.0-27-generic kernel.
