Bug Description
Unity Gestures can be invoked while the lock screen is shown.
This is a security problem, as it allows to peek inside the running applications and show windows using a 3 finger gesture, while on the lock screen.
A screenshot for this is attatched.

Pushed a new branch to fix those issues: lp:~beidl/unity/unity-gestures-lockscreen
Note that the last commit message is a little misleading and it actually,
after testing, shows that also 3 finger gestures stop working now.
