With the old screen locker, the password input field got the focus automatically so that I could simply enter my password to unlock the session. With the new one, I alwas have to click into the password field, before I can enter the pw. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to enter password to unlock session. Actual Results: Nothing happens, since password input field doesn't have focus. Expected Results: Password is entered and session is unlocked.
Actually, I'm refering to 4.10RC1 (4.9.95), but this is not yet in the list.

I don't think it's really fixed in 4.10.4, since the password dialog's text input field still doesn't get focus when the screen saver hides.
Hmm, it seems to work sometimes. However, couldn't figure out what makes it not work, yet.
