Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xscreensaver

When trying to unlock the screen (locked by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del or
coming from suspend/hibernate) XScreensaver asks for user password. But
in password field it is not possible to insert "€" sign (any other input
is showing one more "*" in password field). So, when user's password is
including "€" sign, then it is not possible to unlock the screen!

Using Estonian keyboard and "€" sign comes with keys AltGr+e and it
works in all other programs.
