A simpler workaround (two click solution) is to just click "switch user"
to open the fast user switcher. Then, instead of selecting a new user,
reselect the passwordless account to get back in. You don't have to
uninstall the screensaver. You just have to know which buttons to click.
Possible fixe
Uninstalling gnome-screensaver solves the issue. Obviously you lose the
screensaving functionality, but you can switch users with the fast user
switch applet. When password is needed GDM asks for it, not the gnome-
screensaver locked screen.
