Description
For Athena 9 and the the Jaunty Debathena, you could type username, Enter, password, Enter, and you're logged in. After the Lucid upgrade, you need to press the "Log in" button, and I could discover no way to do that without a mouse.

Yeah, it looks like the Login button has focus on my stock Lucid VM, so I can just hit Enter to get to the Username prompt. I can't test this at the moment, but, looking at the source, the problem could be that focus_on_map is set to True in gdm-config's debathena-branding.glade (for both of its windows). (The kiosk window sets this False).

I wonder if this is the fault of our applets that we added, possibly stealing focus. Can someone verify that a stock GDM configured without the face browser (i.e. with a login button) allows you to login without the mouse? If it does, we should fix tihs, but if not, we can report upstream.
