Issue
I'm testing Mint with the Cinnamon desktop for use in our company and encountered the following problem.
If a domain account password is expired, you will be prompted to choose a new password. You have to enter the new password twice to eliminate typos. Unfortunately, the second text box for password confirmation is not visible. You can only use the tab key to focus it, enter your new password and press enter to finish the login process.

After tab pressed, the second password box is focused:

Steps to reproduce
Configure domain logon via sssd and try to login in with a domain account with an expired password.
Expected behaviour
Second password text box should be visible for the user.
