[Bug 1410195] Re: Ctrl+Alt+F7 bypasses the light-locker lock-screen under XFCE

Might be related to bug 781737. pam-ldap/nss-ldap dropping privileges
is, AFAIK, caused by libgcrypt (bug 423252). If this is the same bug,
then the pending openldap merge (bug 1395098) will resolve it, as gcrypt
will no longer be used. But switching to nss-pam-ldapd is a good
recommendation anyway, since the older modules are dead upstream.

Title:
  Ctrl+Alt+F7 bypasses the light-locker lock-screen under XFCE

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Invalid
Status in System policy:
  Confirmed
Status in libnss-ldap package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in libpam-ldap package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  HOW TO REPRODUCE:
  1. Create an user account with password.
  2. Login in the new account using the XFCE desktop environment.
  3. Lock the screen.
  4. Hit the Ctrl+Alt+F7 key combination.

  EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:
  - The user session to be unavailable due to no password being entered.

  REAL BEHAVIOUR:
  - The session is accessible without entering its password, due to the VT8 being bypassed to the original VT using the Ctrl+Alt+F7 key combination.
