Default screen lock kde4

Hi there!

I m using kde4 on opensuse11.1, but this apply also on kde4 with opensuse11.0.

Use case: press ctrl+l to lock your screen then push escape to don't have the password popup. start to input your password the first letter is not taken.

A bit boring. on gnome this is working, you can start to input your password even if the password popup isn't there. Can anyone is able to improve this UI pb or have a work around for this ?

I'm not a KDE developer, but IMHO it's OK. The screen is locked, and the password box is not shown until the first event received (mouse move, key press, clicking, etc.). If you press any key, it doesn't means, that it will be your password. It is just an activity and notifies the password popup to appear.
