Bug Description
I am using a up-to-date kubuntu maverick meerkat.
Steps to reproduce:
- Lock the screen
- Watch screensaver start
- Move the mouse to get login dialog
- Hit or click Escape
Result: The login dialog disappears. The mouse pointer stays visible forever. No action gives me back the login dialog: Neither moving mouse nor hitting a key. It seems as if the screensaver doesn't get the focus back.
Further observations:
- After that, when I click the right mouse button, an empty context menu appears as a small square.
- If I log in to another console and kill kscreenlocker, the problem is gone, of course, but I don't think kscreenlocker is the problem.

The problem only occurs if "Miniprogramme im Bildschirmschoner zulassen" (Allow applets in screensaver (?)) is activated. I have installed the analog clock and thought it might be a good idea to see it in screensaver.
When the checkbox is active (applets allowed in screensaver), the problem occurs. It seems the analog clock applet gets the focus and keeps it.
