No it is locked/unlocked by a WebUI when ever the user needs to perform
some task that is requires streaming stdio (i.e. the WebUI will say "To
complete task X do the following in a terminal 'ssh user@localhost' and the
WebUI will do what ever juggling is needed to make it so X is performed on
the next login into user [including unlocking the account] when tsak X
completes it locks the account [in reality we do it before] again).

Right now we are doing remote testing (different machine then the
development one) via the port and thus have disabled pkg creation and thus
need to do it before this.
