Thanks for the link. Very interesting.
The link mentions a light-locker-settings package or configuration. It
would nice to know if that package/application actually produces the
light-locker.conf file.

My programs were also still in place but they stopped processing until I

re-started (evidenced by the printer continuing merrily on it's way) and
then I continued to log into the full desktop through the
mate-screensaver lock. From the stuff I read the intent of the
light-locker was security based so as not to allow switching into
another terminal for whatever reason if you had physical access to the
machine. I have no idea how that's done, or maybe we're not configuring
it correctly. Like I indicated earlier, the source appears to have a
facility for a light-locker.conf file but I found none on my system and
I can't read the code well enough to figure out what parameters can be
used, much less what they do.
Apparently known light-locker insane behavior:
