I don't think this is the case... At least I didn't get this regression
in my vm.

Is it yours clean?

Aslo I don't see how this could happen, as per the pure diff.
Is your gdm3 altrnative setup properly?

Title:
  Input field height changes slightly when entering in st password
  fields.

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  It appears there is the font/height rendering issue in multiple
  places. With the textentry "jumping" in height slightly upon entering
  anything.

  I have observed this on the login screen password entry screen,
  lockscreen entry, and the gnome pin entry for my ssh/gpg smartcard.

  It almost feels as if the "dots" of the hidden password are either of
  larger font size and/or bold, whilst an empty text field and/or
  unfocused text field font is either smaller and or regular (non-bold).
  Resulting in a rendering / layout jiggles.

  
  [ Impact ]

  Password input field increase the vertical size as soon as the user
  types something

  [ Test case ]

  1. Run:
     pkexec true
  2. Start typing something
  3. The input field should not resize vertically

  This works only in case the big-font a11y option is not enabled

  [ Regression potential ]

  Input Text entries might be slightly taller than they were
