--- Comment #6 from Max <m...@eterkludd.se> ---
If we want to aim for more mainstream adoption this issue should be prioritized
more, a lot if not most non-gaming laptops come with fingerprint readers these
days (and a bunch of gaming-laptops too), and things like this not working will
be noticed, and can cause users some headache trying to fix.

Not being able to use password when fingerprinter is configured creates risk of
locking people out, as there are plenty of reasons a fingerprint reader might
fail to authenticate (scratched or dirty fingers, very dry skin, scratched
sensor, driver bug or bad behaving such as refusing to work after repeated
failed scans etc.).

Also the lock-screen currently states: "(or scan you fingerprint on the
reader)" below the password field, which is misleading (and also appears on
computers without fprint installed or even a fingerprint reader, but that is a
separate issue).
