Public bug reported:

When running tuxpaint in full screen mode, my son and I walked away for
dinner.  We returned to find the computer locked, courtesy of Ubuntu
Unity settings.  I have not changed the setting that enables screen
saver when in tuxpaint.  Thus, I was quite shocked I saw this.

Further, when I went to log back in, my login was held hostage by
tuxpaint, thus I saw my background and a gray box where the login box
would appear.  But the login box was empty.  The mouse pointer was the
large hand used by tuxpaint.  I was unable to login, whether using
unity-greeter or or the actual login.  I ultimately had to force-kill
the tuxpaint PID via another TTY before I was able to log-in.

Also of note, I do use fast-user-switching.
