I was able to accomplish the behavior by setting values in gconf-editor as you described above (I'm not sure if it was that exact key or another). This does serve as a useful workaround. However, the title of this bug is "No GUI method to disable screen lock..." so yes the bug is that there is no GUI way to set this.
