Comment 0 for bug 1030434

In XFCE, when my mouse pointer is hovering over a drop down item from the menu bar (such is wireless networks, or the audio controls), xflock4 no longer locks the screen after the specified delay. It doesn't lock the screen either when invoked from a command line.

It seems to think it did though, as an attempt to lock the screen again (after moving the mouse to a different place) yields: "xscreensaver-command: already locked."

This is a pretty massive security hole (though not a remote one) as, if I walk away from my computer while my cursor is over one of the drop downs, the screen won't lock and anyone can sit down at the computer and take control regardless of how much time has elapsed.

Attaching screenshot.
