Doing certification testing on the Lenovo W510. During testing, I closed the lid and re-opened. The system suspended. I pressed the power button to resume and once it was awake again, the desktop was present but not usable.
I can move the pointer around freely, but the pointer never changes from the Text pointer to the arrow as it moves over various areas of hte desktop. Clicks to windows or launcher icons or panel icons do not produce any results. Right clicks do not produce any context menus.
There is no way out of this. Because CTRL-ALT-BKSP was decided to be such a bad thing, a user in this position has only two options. Reboot, or drop to a console and kill X.
I reset X by dropping to a console and sending it a SIGHUP.

tagging as regression because this was not noticed with testing of previous Ubuntu versions.
Also, attached is a short video showing the desktop behaviour after resuming from suspend using the procedure listed above
