I can reproduce this bug consistently on a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge (Ubuntu 14.04 + lightdm version: 1.10.1-0ubuntu1).

When I open the lid and try to log in, the input goes to the active program in the session. This is a security concern because that could expose my password to a variety of other programs (IRC, GChat, etc.).

Current workaround is to click the gear icon, which makes the input register in the password field.
