well it doesn't mean it's not a bug in the gnome fallback session, it
should not rely on the login manager to lock the screen since there is
no garanty the one you use will do that for you, under unity the
indicator do lock the screen before calling the user switching

Title:
  When switching user, session is not properly locked (Gnome-classic)

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Try the following:

  - Log in a gnome-classic session
  - Select "Switch User" in the top-right menu
  (you are now on lightdm, your former session is supposed to be protected by a password)
  - Switch to a random TTY
  - Switch back to the graphical session: you are now in your first session, without entering any password.

  This seems to work only with the combination of gnome-classic (with or
  without effects) and lightdm.

  No problem with Unity or Gnome-Shell with lightdm.
  With GDM3, no problem with gnome-classic.
