Public bug reported:
What happens:
Screen lock: prior to login the system responds to the first several characters
typed and responds to mouse or trackpad movements.
For security sake; Shouldn't this be tightened up?
What should not happen:
Input buffer should not accept signals (ie: characters, keyboard strokes; and
not mouse or trackball inputs.
What could potentially happen:
the Hack of system by way of buffer use; thru the momentary laspe of security
during the first instance of "locked screen" activity just prior to a login.
Try it and you'll see.
