Bug Description

Compiz crashes while trying to change the keyboard layout (Super+Shift L or Alt+Shif L) in Lock screen password field. Using indicator to change keyboard layout works without a problem.

While Compiz is restarting lock screen does not work, so it is possible to access the locked desktop.

Same on 16.04.1, both updated and fresh netinstall.
Using default shortcuts (Super+Space|Shift+Super+Space) work fine, with any custom shortcut compiz crashes.

Same crash on 16.04 when I press "CapsLock" to change keyboard layout. At that moment anybody cat see all my staff on my computer and interact with it using keyboard. https://youtu.be/2KLL1vMM9Q8

Any news here? This is a security issue since confidential information can be gathered from a locked account in this way. Any hope of seeing a quick fix or workaround?

While lock screen is restarting, you even can type something in gedit for example. Ubuntu 16.04.

While lock screen is restarting, I was able to "crash it furthermore" and fully interact with all my open windows/terminals etc.
And this happening to an LTS version even after the first point release.

Yes, I also able to "crash it furthermore".. It's very dangerous issue, but still not fixed at LTS..
