Hm, well the reason we didn't implement that (yet) is that DPMS support
brings in an extra dependency and you can never know whether the
hardware supports it.

Right now we do screenblanking only because that was less problematic (no extra dependency, no support problems).
I agree though that it is desirable to implement that (and it shouldn't be too difficult), so I guess we'll take care of that in one of the next releases.

Title:
  Enable auto monitor off

Status in “lightdm-gtk-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is request, not a bug.

  On Xubuntu 14.04, lightdm-gtk-greeter is used in in conjunction with
  light locker. When leaving the computer, user can hit ctrl+alt+del to
  lock the screen and thus stopping others from accessing the computer.
  However, all screens remain switched on for an indefinite amount of
  time. It would be preferable if the screen switch off automatically
  after a minute or so, or after a user-defined amount of time.
