I think they did some pretty grody hacks, and I am pretty positive they
didn't customize the keyguard, but just completely turned it off and show
their own thing.  (I also don't know much about it, so this is all
speculation, but I would be deeply concerned about it introducing holes
where people can get by the lock screen by doing the right trick, or
situations where their lock screen is not being hidden when it should.  The
user interaction between the lock screen and the rest of the system is
incredibly complicated, and always a thorn in our side during development to
get completely right.  That is one of the reasons we haven't yet provided a
way for people to replace it.)

Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to
provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.  All such
questions should be posted on public forums, where I and others can see and
answer them.
