After upgrading from plasma 5.2.0 to 5.2.1 the password field in the Breeze lock screen does not get focus automatically. You have to click on it or use the tab key.
Affects also current 'master'.
The window doesn't seem to get focus initially, the problem is not in the lockscreen's QML code.

Is there a particular reason all the setFocus() calls in the screenlocker greeter have been commented? // w->setFocus(Qt::OtherFocusReason); // FIXME
Apparently because QWidget was turned into QWindow -> "w->requestActivate();" Some genius managed to nuke the commit history *grrrrrr*

This doesn't seem fixed in 5.3.1. Whenever my screen locks, the password field isn't in focus.
