Holding a key down for extended period of time in the password field causes greeter to become unresponsive. #436

Switching focus to the password field and holding a key down for extended period of time (up to an hour) will cause the greeter password field to become unresponsive and lock up. The key is possibly enter (bug caused by a cat lying on keyboard). Login is not possible (ctrl + a followed by backspace doesn't work, password field and buttons completely unresponsive). Caps lock and num lock notification works.

Dropping to a text terminal (ctrl + alt + F1) is possible, after login sudo ps aux reveals a lot of [kworker] processes.

Happened again, this time I dumped output of sudo ps aux into a file (attached). Don't know if the [kworker]s are even related, there's substantially less of those processes this time.
