Description of problem: Selecting Lock Screen puts up a dialog box requesting an away message instead of locking the screen. This is a change in behavior and a security risk. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select "Menu" from the toolbar 2. Select the Lock Screen icon from the left side of the resulting menu. 3. Actual results: A dialog box requesting an away message appears. Expected results: The screen immediately locks. Additional info: It is possible to override this behavior in the System Settings => ScreenSaver and Lock Settings menu. The ability to provide an away message is good, but the default should be to lock the screen as soon as the Lock Screen icon is selected. I have classified this as "urgent" because of the security risk. This behavior appeared after an update. I discovered it after I had locked my system, walked away, and returned an hour later to discover the system unlocked waiting for an away message.
