Hi,

Couple of questions and suggestions from a new user.
Is it the normal behavior of fprint to show no feedback when fingerprint is
un/successfully scanned (at login, xscreensaver etc)?
Should the user have to press enter for the fingerprint to "take" after
it's scanned? It's somewhat counter-intuitive since one expects the
authentication to be either fingerprint OR keyboard entry, not mix of the
two - it feels like pressing enter to the empty password box.
Fprintd-enroll should maybe show some info or feedback when fingerprints
are entered. It could tell user that it expects multiple scans. I scanned,
waited, waited, then ctrl+C'd myself out and nothing worked of course.
Since the message after first scan is something like "Success" users might
think that's that, and quit or just wait for the program to quit.

Thanks,
G.
