This bug was fixed in the package compiz - 1:0.9.11+14.10.20140606-0ubuntu1
--------------- compiz (1:0.9.11+14.10.20140606-0ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=low [ Chris Townsend ] * Only ungrab the Mod2Mask modifier on buttons 4-7 to allow scrolling in unfocused Gtk windows while still allowing keybinding modifiers to other scroll wheel actions. (LP: #1311788) * Fix issue where window decorations would be placed under the Panel when opening a new window from an already open window. This is due to the already open window being taller or just as tall without be maximized than the workspace. (LP: #1303462) * Only constrain the non-modifier scrolling to the vertical scrolling buttons - buttons 4 & 5. (LP: #1311303) * Fix issue where maximized windows would get moved to different workspaces when disconnecting/connecting an external monitor. Windows should stay in the same workspace they are in when the monitor event occurs. (LP: #1304531) * Fix issue where custom keyboard shortcuts would get reset to defaults when rebooting or restarting Compiz. (LP: #1063617) * Fixes issue in the Expo plugin where a gap is shown in the place where the Launcher and Panel should be when windows are maximized. This was originally removed in rev. 3481. (LP: #1087090) * Fix issue where horizontal and vertical keyboard resizing could not happen at the same time. (LP: #347390) [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ] * Scale: use XShape extension to exclude dnd input in the screen-parts outside workArea This will work property also in multi-monitor, without requiring multiple X windows for each output device. Also don't terminate the scale unless a drag-n-drop action is not really over. Add a spinner that shows up over a window, during the DnD timeout. Plus, make sure we terminate the scale without focusing the selected icon when cancelling it and some code cleanup (LP: #607796) * Event: set the screen grabbed also when we get a NotifyWhileGrabbed Focus{In,Out} event (LP: #1305586) -- Ubuntu daily release <ps-jenk...@lists.canonical.com> Fri, 06 Jun 2014 09:43:06 +0000 ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

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).
