@kristian-erik-hermansen Cool find, but utterly irrelevant here. That
bug is about users blindly trusting the screen to auto-lock (which they
_should be able to_).
This bug is about the trust being broken even after they _verified_ that
they had _explicitly_ locked their screens. That's (a) a very
This Lock Screen bug is just one of many unfixed security issues. Below

So both the linked branches built in silo 8, and when I tested it, this
is what I found:
1. start unity
2. open terminal (Ctrl+alt+T)
3. type 'sleep 15 && killall -9 compiz'
4. lock screen
observe: screen locks, then unity crashes, then unity restarts locked.
so far so good.

When the screen is locked with password, if I hold ENTER after some
