Kevin, It's not a user security issue, it's a privacy issue, which is
why it's under "Privacy" rather than "Security". You may not have
noticed this because the area containing the "Privacy" intro label looks
like a list item, which is bug 1191029.

I do not think a "When locked, allow: Notifications and quick settings"
setting should exist that does not, in fact, control notifications at
the lock screen. A simple way to fix this for RTM would be to remove the
setting altogether, never allowing access to indicator menus at the lock
screen. The Unity API Team have scheduled substantial work on
implementing greeter profiles for the indicators, determining which
items should be present when the setting is turned on. Removing the
setting, and blocking all access to indicator menus at the lock screen,
would be less work rather than more.
