They finally got rid of the "you have to scroll the screen all the
way up from the bottom" to get out of the lock screen.
Now it says click or hit any key.
If you hit a key, it does get you out of the lock screen, but that
key also winds up being passed to the password entry field as the
first character of your password, so then you type your actual
password and get a login error :-).
Stick to clicking.
