Title: curiosity killed the trusty tahr Status in Unity: New Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I went to the vet with cat #2, while cat #1 was at home. Being a responsible user, I locked my screen with Ctrl-Alt-L before leaving. When I returned from the vet, cat #1 was sitting on the keyboard of my Thinkpad x201, and the keyboard buffer of the screensaver's password entry field was full. Even after removing the cat, the password entry field was unresponsive. It was impossible to delete the garbage characters entered by cat #1, even trying to get the focus to that dialog using the mouse was unsuccessful. My only option was to go to a text console using Ctrl-Alt-F1 and reboot (I know, I could have killed the screensaver, but for ordinary users this is probably too complex.) I consider that a bug in unity or the screensaver. Curious cats should not kill the trusty tahr or its screensaver.
