When a user enters a wrong password in gnome-screensaver, the dialog shakes to give feedback that the entered password was wrong.

It would be nice if gdm login did the same.

The plain greeter does.  The themed greeter doesn't though.  But in general,
it's not really possible to say if/how the themed greeter should shake.

A good solution probably isn't worth the engineering effort.  Feel free to file
upstream as an enhancement request though.
