Entering the wrong password causes some annoying behavior

Bug Description

I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 dev with xscreensaver 5.26-1ubuntu1 and on locking the screen and entering the wrong password xscreensaver shows in the panel the message "Authentication failed! while showing the buttons "New Login" and "OK". But these 2 buttons are useless as a mouseclick on any position will close the panel. Also if an empty password is entered xscreensaver shows an error message out of the panel. Maybe this should be kept more consistent with showing both error types outside or inside the panel instead of mixing this.
