Bug Description

 affects unity

In order for text entry fields such as used in the lock screen to be fully accessible for screen reader users, UnityTextInputAccessible needs to implement the AtkText interface from ATK. Implementing this interface allows screen reader users to fully interract with the text entry field, such as querying currently selected text, etc. Of course if it is a password field, then the user should only hear the password character.
