screen -> screen lock -> timers -> lock after blanking

you can select how long after. locking is done either manually, by blanking
(set blanking timeout as above) or a lock after suspend. there isn't a separate
lock timeout on its own (no real point - auto lock when you are away and if you
are away the screen should be off anyway - you're not there). there's also
bluetooth lock devices too. when that bt device goes away (can't be pinged) e
will auto-lock if you set it as a lock devices. it's in the bt gadget popup in
the controls per device you paired.

i removed presentation mode. there are actions now you can bind to turn
blanking on/off (under Screen -> Blanking On/Off/Toggle). so bind some key
combo to it. :)

it never had a timeout for locking on its own. locking was always either
manually done or via one of the triggers above.
