Bug Description

When you lock your computer screen, the windows/super button pulls up the unity task bar when long held, this does not seem to be a security issue at the moment, merely graphical.

Can't reproduce this issue either.

Out of curiosity, how are you locking your screen? I tried all ways of doing it, from suspend to Ctrl+Alt+L, but I'm not able to reproduce this bug.

This bug seemed to digress as well as the Bug #901823 it did seem to happen at the same time however, i am assuming that the same thing is triggering both of these bugs. Again, any suggestions on logs i can grab if it does happen again?
