When I reported this bug I'd just had it with a prompt for an account password from e-d-s.

Matching subscriptions: dx-packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1305586 Title: Lock screen is unusable when a ssh dialog has a keyboard/mouse grab Status in Unity: Triaged Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: My screen just timed out and locked when a password prompt which had a grab was displaying. I couldn't type my password or interact with the indicators. gnome-screensaver just refuses to lock in this situation, perhaps unity could do the same unless it's possible to remove and readd the grabs yourself, but I don't think XLib lets you do that (you can only remove your own grabs AFAIK).
