Public bug reported:

I reported two bugs today, and both times, after having finished
reporting the bug, locking my screen, and logging back in, suddenly
there was a dialog asking for my sudo password so it can execute dmesg.

But I could neither hit cancel nor could I enter my password, it
apperaded that anything I did, especially clicks, made the window
*below* the dialog react.

First time I solved it by rebooting (because I had some packages to
upgrade anyway), second time by killing gnome-shell and letting it
restart.

This dialog definitely did not appear in the process of reporting the
bug, the first time it appeared on screen was minutes after completing
the bugreports in launchpad, plus locking and unlocking the screen
afterwards.

Might also be a problem with gnome-shell or gksudo(?), but it only ever
happened to me when using ubuntu-bug -w.
