Steps:
* log in to unity8
* Ctrl+Alt+F* to a different vt, or log in to a different user session
* go back to the unity8 vt

Expected:
* session is locked, but working

Current:
* unity8 starts spinning for a time proportional to the period it was inactive
* if it was inactive long enough, it doesn't seem to recover at all

It seems it's "catching up" in some way, maybe with input, maybe frames.
