Bug Description

I resized Google Chrome (then I tried reproducing the issue with nautilus, after a system reboot), by holding the corner of the window (the appropriate cursor showed up, for resizing the window), and resizing it, but pushed the up/down arrow of my mouse (I think it's called MOUSE 4/5, in Java, at least) before letting go of the primary button (left click).

After that, I could not hit SUPER and get the dashboard to show up; I could not lock my account (using (left control) + (left alt) + "l"); my mouse cursor could move, but I could not move it out of the current monitor; I could not click, or scroll on any window, the doc, the desktop, or anything; using (left control) + (left alt) + (delete) was buggy, because I could not use my keyboard or mouse to control the options or hit enter (but using (left control) + (left alt) + "l" let me exit the screen);

I could get to the terminal using (left control) + (left alt) + "t"; I can switch Windows using SUPER + (number on the doc) and using (left alt) + (tab) and using (left alt) + (tab) + (left shift); I could use the keyboard for the current window.

(I haven't really messed with the keyboard shortcut settings, they're all default (except, SUPER + "E" open nautilus in my home directory)).

I was expecting me to be able to lock my account (like it's supposed to), use Ubuntu dash, and to be able to click on the Desktop, and the cursor to return to the arrow, instead of being stuck on the resize cursor.
