That affects different Google Chrome inputs. Address bar, Google search bar, Google Keep inputs and so on. It's not limited to a special extension. (I use a Zenbook Prime UX31A with Ubuntu 14.04 running.) Maybe other programs are affected too, but I don't think so. Can't reproduce it with Gedit for example.

The lockscreen really should not let this happen, and it can even be considered a potential security vulnerability as it might allow applications to capture a user's password. I have noticed this before as well when using another application, though I can't remember which one it was at the moment. The workaround is to use the mouse to choose the Switch user-option, but this is really not obvious to anyone who might encounter this bug.
