[Bug 1179733] Re: preferences tool : password should be required by default

 

I'm using lubuntu with xscreensaver; my power management tools (xfce
power manager) does this for me by default, but I can't help but imagine
what might happen if I didn't have such a de installed?  Why is this
option disabled by default in xscreensaver?
