Description Mikhail Zabaluev CLA 2010-06-25 19:53:30 EDT 
Eclipse GTK+ on Linux loses all sensitivity to key events in a particular scenario. I can reproduce it with my desktop screensaver.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start Eclipse to get the workspace window.
2. Let the window open and allow the screensaver to activate.
3. Dismiss the screensaver.
4. Click to get the focus in any of Eclipse views, and try to enter anything from the keyboard.

Normal keyboard behavior does not recover until I switch the focus to some other window and return it back to Eclipse.

I'm running Eclipse 3.6 on Ubuntu 10.04. The problem was also reproducible on two previous Ubuntu releases and Eclipse 3.5.x.
