Bug description:
In minimal clean installation of Ubuntu Desktop 18.04.2 LTS, login
password is shown in plaintext in console output after 3rd logout from
Gnome. Just start the machine, login and logout from Gnome session for
more than tree times and login password (and incorrect login attempts)
starts to be shown on console that is briefly visible after logout.
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwzX_4qe8nA&t=89s for
