Public bug reported: Sorry I don't know if it is lightdm or nautilus or something else that handles this.
Leave computer for a while until screen blanks Come back Would expect login screen to be presented Screen is black and no login box appears although cursor does change to text entry when over where the box would be. Clicking where box would be and entering password blind just gives a black screen and default cursor everywhere. Don't think this is reliably reproduceable.
