Public bug reported:

In a new installation of Ubuntu there are incosistencies in the text
used to describe when a user enters their password incorrectly. The ones
I have found are:

Logging in from boot:
"Invalid password, please try again"

Unlocking your computer:
"Incorrect password"

Authenticating an operation e.g. installing an application:
"Your authentication attempt was unsuccessful. Please try again."

Putting in a password in the terminal:
"Sorry, try again."

Entering a password on tty1-6
"Login incorrect"

It could be argued that the text used for logging in should be different
to the other tasks, but even then there are inconsistencies
