Dropping in to say that this bug is affecting me as well. I am running a touchscreen tablet PC without a builtin keyboard. Login not possible with passwords that have a capital letter or symbol that requires the shift key.

Launch a program where you can type text (gedit for example). 2. Activate on screen keyboard (by touching the screen, foe example). 3. Notice all the keys on the on screen keyboard display lowercase letters. 4. Begin typing. Lowercase characters are typed into the text area. 5. Tap on the Shift (up arrow at left side of on screen keyboard) key of the on screen keyboard. 6. Notice all the keys on the on screen keyboard now display capital letters. 7. Begin typing. 8. A lowercase character will be typed into the text area. This is not expected behavior. Instead, a capital letter should have been typed. (All the keys on the on screen keyboard revert to lower case. This is expected, since the on screen shift key would need to be pressed again in order to attempt to type another capital character).
