Yes, it works okay now. Is it possible to make this the default (and make the
configurator always set that in ~/.xscreensaver). It doesn't prevent a
nonprivileged user from locking out the whole computer, but it prevents a
non-malicious one from doing so accidentally - I don't think it *has* to prevent
a malicious user from locking out the computer because C-M-<backspace> works
against them :) but it does save innocents from losing their data to another
user's frustration.
