Bug Description
This means you can see the screen contents until you move the pointer.
Presumably nothing is triggering a screen redraw when the lock screen becomes active (at least in a qemu VM).
This has the potential to leave personal information if an attacker knows not to touch the pointer.

@Pete, can you please give exact steps to repro? It might be different depending on whether you hit the greeter or the lock screen (which today look identical).
