Bug 454328

SUMMARY
It appears that in 5.25 beta lockscreen was given some overhaul. Before that I was able to type in my password and press enter even if screen was displaying clock. Now it ignores keys until password field starts showing.

Is that intended behavior? I would assume in the name of "security" if true.
Now if it's intended, may I suggest doing it like Microsoft and asking user to press Enter, or do a swipe up gesture before password could be inserted? Otherwise it's just looks like UI is lagging from my perspective.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Lock screen
2.  Start typing
3.  Keys are being ignored until lockscreen displays password field

OBSERVED RESULT
Can't type my password from muscle memory, unless I want to see "password incorrect" answer.

EXPECTED RESULT

Screenlocker should parse input as before.
