Normally, the lockscreen has three buttons visible where the first leftmost one is the user icon. Clicking the last one, "Change Session", makes the buttons scroll.

Now look at the attached screenshot.

After clicking the "Change Session" button, the user button is no more visible and there's zero clue on how to actually get back. Eventually I found out that arrow keys work but imo that's not very discoverable. 

I got this reported by my wife and she had no idea how to get back the user icon and thought she managed to remove her user profile altogether. Not too good.

Maybe a plain Esc key could reset the lockscreen and return focus to the password field? Or there could be arrows or some other indicators...
