The assumption is that people who want to protect their computer after suspend or hibernate want a locking screensaver too. I mean who wants suspend/hibernate password protection when he doesn't care that PC is locked after some time automatically. Btw. they can disable the screensaver without messing up with the suspend and hibernate security. In this case Ubuntu would gain some more security through screensaver locking. If I want a password free working (many people at home prefer this) I only need to change two GUI options (screensaver locking and gdm) and if I don't there is no change needed. That is usability for me and much more intuitive than the weird Gnome screensaver sleeping time assumption which make the differentiation between ac and battery power useless.
