I tested this bug on version RC-proposed revision 84 using a BQ device
and when the proximity sensor is covered the screen will not turn on so
there is no way to unlock your screen by mistake.

I have also checked iPhone 5 and the screen stays on when the proximity
sensor is covered. Also you can slide anywhere on your screen to unlock
your phone.

Title:
  [greeter/unlock] "Unlocking swipe" is to easy to do on accident

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Fix Committed
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Use-Case:
  Your phone is in your pocket. You get a text message. You take your phone out of your pocket, and turn it in your hand so the front faces you.

  Expected behavior: The phone is still locked
  Behavior I get: 80% of the time, the phone is unlocked and I opened some app or menu I don't want.

  
  When you take your phone out of your pocket, the screen rubs against your leg and your fingers. This easily creates the sliding motion required to unlock the homescreen. Most android and ios phones use a small, 1cm thick slider to unlock the homescreen. This is a lot harder to do on accident.
