Bug Description

I use lightdm and light-locker. If I launch light-locker with "--no-late-locking", then if my display turns off, session only gets locked when display turns on again, and so I can press any key on the keyboard, and it will be handled before locker turns on -> insecure.

If I launch light-locker without "--no-late-locking", then:
Computer stands idle for 10 minutes, display turns off, screen locker turns on, display turns back on automatically, I should wait another 10 minutes for display to turn off again.

This is probably better raised with the light-locker developers:
