Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:
Open a root terminal.
A window pops up asking for the root password.
If you hit the caps lock key, a little warning icon appears and a bold text telling me that the caps lock key is on.
Hit the caps lock key again and the warning icon goes away, but the text doesnt.

How it should be:
The text should go away too.

Strange observations:
THe text goes away if I hit the shift key.

If the caps lock key is already in pressed state when I open the root terminal, the bold text is there but the warning icon isnt.

This should be streamlined so that the warning Icon and the text appear and disappear together. At least thats how I think it should be.

Maybe this isnt a terminal thing after all but a granite thing, so I am marking granite as affected. Feel free to remove it if thats not the case.
