Ubuntu 12.10 reached end-of-life so it's no longer supported. Can you still reproduce this bug on 14.04 (or laters)?

I encountered a problem which I consider to be a flaw in the UX of Unity. I hope this report will be useful to you. After activating Ubuntu One I began to see the "default keyring was not unlocked on login" popup. I can only presume it was caused by Ubuntu One, since the popup in no way indicates exactly which process is requesting access to the keyring. Since Ubuntu One (or whatever app it was) is also incredibly annoying and keeps re-popping it up if I click Cancel, I managed to notice a problem with Unity while the popup was there. The popup dramatically steals focus from the entire system. In the dash I am unable to type, I was barely able to open it - it opens only in the period of time that the popup is not there. Also, Synapse global shortcut doesn't work (Ctrl+Space), and Guake terminal can be opened (F12) but I was unable to type any commands into it. I think no popup should be allowed to be so agressive in grabbing the input from the user. I'm not sure if this belongs under Unity, I apologise if this is the wrong place to report it. Best regards!
