Unless you are seeing a bug, this is already the case - if you move the mouse instead of typing a key to wake up the screen, you should see the shield. And the shield will indeed consume keyboard input, however any printable key lifts the shield, so users can wake up the screen by simply typing their password. However when the screen is not yet locked, you get the result you are seeing - after the first keystroke has lifted the shield, all subsequent keyboard input ends up in the application that has keyboard focus.
