Bug Description
When you "Suspend" or "Lock" the computer you can bypass the password screen by activating the drag with mouse effect on the compiz cube (default keybind is cntrl-alt-left click(and drag)). This is on Hardy Heron. Don't know exactly where the problem is caused from but I believe it's either in the package for the cube or Ubuntu's security. I expected it would just ignore the command and the security system would override it. Instead... see above.

Thanks for the bug report and helping to make Ubuntu better. I am unable to reproduce this. Is this still a problem on your system?
