so what? What does an insecurity in another area say that we should make the
lock screen insecure?

Good point: ksmserver needs ptrace protection like it's already the case in
kwin_wayland (which holds the lockscreen in the Wayland session). But again: a
vulnerability in another area is not an argument to add a vulnerability in
another area. We want to fix that mess.
