Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
1) Ubuntu 9.10
2) gdm: 2.28.1-0ubuntu2.1
3) When using "face-browser" mode I except the login screen to never
show any plain-text input.
4) As soon as you start typing (without having selected a user yet)
everything you type will be shown in a small text box in the lower right
corner. I guess this happens since the users are arranged in a list and
this should help you to select a user via the keyboard. However, in a
hurry one might simply start typing his/her password which then of
course is visible in plain-text.
** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
