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

Status in Desktop panel for GNOME:
  New
Status in Light Display Manager:
  New
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.
