I have tested the login process as follows:

a) Install gdm3 from bionic-proposed version 3.28.0-0ubuntu1.1 - in Ubuntu 
18.04 LTS and reboot.
b) When login screen appears, click on my username and enter incorrect password.
c) Enter correct password and press enter or click on sign in. Login successful.

However I have encountered the following issue:

a) Log out of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
b) Click on my username and enter my password correctly to login again and 
click on sign in or press enter.

The login prompt freezes, cannot click on cancel or the signin button.
When I click on the button to perform a restart or shutdown, it
indicates that I am still logged in therefore there appears to be an
issue logging out.

I also confirm that the issue as reported by Bodlinux in post #60 also
occurs exactly as described.

In this case clicking on the button to perform a restart or shutdown
indicates that I am logged in but haven't moved past the login screen to
the desktop so again an issue there.

I have only installed the gdm3 update from bionic-proposed, do we need
additional updates in order for the login system to be tested properly
or will the gdm3 update suffice?
