Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
On armel, the screensaver is not shown by default and instead the screen
locks immediately when gnome-screensaver's timeout fires.
This means that you get no chance to avoid entering your password,
whereas if the screensaver were to be shown you would be able to press a
key or wiggle the mouse to avoid the screen locking. This is especially
annoying if it occurs during passive activities such as reading a
document or web page for example.
For the armel default configuration, it could make sense to blank the
screen for a short period before locking it so the user has a chance to
respond.
I don't know to what extent this applies to other architectures.
