Title: -

Package: xscreensaver
Version: 6.02+dfsg1-2
Severity: normal

If I know I mistyped the password, I am used to holding down backspace to erase all characters, effectively making use of the key repeat. This stopped working with version 6, and now holding down the key only ever removes a single character.
