Description Nicholas Schuetz 2015-10-14 20:20:54 UTC 
I use a Surface Pro 3 which is dual booted between W8.1 and F22.  I would like to see a parody of the W8.1 PIN code feature.  Sometimes, i am not able to extend the keyboard and type out my very long password.  

Thanks!

Login/unlock with PIN also makes locking your screen whenever you leave your workstation less painful. PIN makes unlocking almost as fast as locking (Super+L).
