Bug Description
* Restarted computer, log in screen came up complete with the user name, the correct session selected...but the password field itself was invisible. It was roughly where it should have been, and did allow for selection/typing input of the password via keyboard, however, it was not visible. Everything else seemed to be in the correct place/visible, just not the field to enter the password.
* Changed the user to log in from the main user account to the guest account, and back: the field didn't return.
* Logged in as a guest user and logged out, the field didn't return.

Confirm that this bug just appeared with 2015-01-27 updates. I had not noticed it before. If one does not have the presence of mind to hit the Enter key, they could be stuck at the log in.
