That's ok.  It's not actually that it works less.  I made it explicitly be
insensitive to typing until the daemon actually asks for a username.  It
never really did in your case, but the greeter was sensitive but there was
still no communication, so it's not a regression really since before you
could type the username but it was of no use because the daemon didn't ask
for it yet and hasn't received it anyway.

No it gets stuck at the same place, I just changed the greeter to act
accordingly stuck as well :)

Should I use a dot then?
