I forgot to mention that this refers to the lockscreen, sorry.

If the user types in the wrong password, a timer runs 3 second long, and after this period the user is able to type in a new password. The wrong password gets selected as soon as the user presses the login button, but he can't type in a new password until the timer expired. This is bad, because the user thinks he can type in the new password as soon as the old one is selected.
With this patch, the wrong password gets selected just when the timer expires and when the user is able to type in another password.
