Personally, I'm happy for the lock screen to show date+time but I would prefer everything else to be hidden (or ateast hideable with a system-setting) until the phone is unlocked.
The majority of users may not mind if the notification bar is displayed when the screen is locked (Android does this), but I think it would be prudent to add an option to hide this as some users/customers will prefer to minimise any privacy leakage (particularly if we grow the scope of the notification bar in the future).
Regarding the launcher:
1) What is the use-case for wanting to launch an app when the phone is locked?
2) What is the use-case for wanting to re-order the icons when the phone is locked?
I don't believe users would be happy if either of the above actions could occur on a desktop system, so why allow it on Touch?
If nothing else, allowing such features increases the probability of pocket-dialing-type issues ("I left the phone in state X but now I come to unlock the phone it's mysteriously in state Y. What happened?")
