Public bug reported:

>From https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15281

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS with the XFCE 4.12 desktop (Xfwm4 window
manager) on an ASUS ROG laptop. The primary screen is 2560x1440 joined
to the laptop's own 1920x1080.

Small but nagging problem unlocking a session after it locks
automatically while I'm having coffee. As I return to the laptop the
screen contains one single widget, the unlock dialog, unsurprisingly.
The problem is that, in most cases, its password input field does not
have keyboard focus, nor does it get focus by a single mouse click.
Nothing happens when clicking the password field.

Restoring keyboard focus requires three (3) mouse clicks. All three are
necessary.

1. Click the username drop-down
2. Select the current user
3. Click the password field

At step 2 the dialog sometimes disappears and leaves a screen containing
nothing but background. I solve this by randomly pressing some of the
function buttons in frustration, perhaps F8. The dialog appears again.

At other times, after step 2, the dialog jumps to a different location
on the screen.
