Bug#658048: gdm3: Password input field does not honor Ctrl-u

[Michael Welsh Duggan]

Package: gdm3
Version: 3.0.4-4
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

  gdm3 does not appear to honor typing Ctrl-u to clear password
  entry.  This behavior is common for unix password prompts, and
  lacking this behavior is a regression from gdm.
