Hitting CTRL+C kills X. This is a quick photo of what appears for a couple of 
seconds, before GDM takes on again.
If you've not the time to read all the password, you can always 
CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE.

As you can see, there's also my username at GDM. I removed the "genuine 
password".
The rest is a string searched in firefox, and what I typed in the terminal.

This time, also a lot of ^H, ^B and other strange control characters weren't 
put there, because the session was too short.
Normally, they do.
