My system is set for "automatic login".

I recognize that the system is vulnerable at boot.

However, I submit
that the lock screen insinuates that the system has been secured against unauthorized access and
that the average user has the tendency to trust what the system tell it so that
therefore
the lock screen utility *must* be improved.

I suggest to let the lock screen utility disable automatic login (and set a flag to restore the previous setting).
