Title: Lock/login screen displays password in clear text occasionally Status in GNOME Shell: New Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Hello, folks, Today when I returned to my computer (which I locked with Super+L) and attempted to unlock it, it displayed my passphrase in cleartext in the 'Password' box. I noticed as soon as I got the first character in, then typed in the second character and it stayed clear. I then picked up my phone to record the attached video and while I was fiddling with it to get a good camera shot, the screen locked (for inactivity perhaps?) and when I unlocked this time, the password only displayed as dots (as expected). So unfortunately, I don't know how to replicate. It _did_ occur though, as the attached video will show if you go slowly (look for "hu", the first characters of legendary password "hunter2").
