Hello everyone, I am a i3 newbie and use it since a few weeks. i3 seems to be awesome 'cause of ...but I have a little problem with i3lock. I use a fingerprint authentication and at least in the login screen it's possible to use the fingerprint but typing a password is also possible. In i3lock it is not...? What do i wrong?

Current Behavior

The behaviour unlock via fingerprint: Green circle in the middle, typing return key shows "verifing...", and unlocking via fingerprint is possible and works (but not before typing return)

The behaviour unlock via password(?): Green circle in the middle, typing any key (password) shows light green parts at the border of the circle (I guess that's the visual feedback for a typing key?), and then.... typing return activates the fingerprint mechanism ("verifying...") and a can unlock via fingerprint only...

Expected Behavior

Type password and press enter -> start verifying typed password Type enter without password -> start verifying via fingerprint ...or something similar... I just wanna have the choice every time

Environment
