This bug means lost work, so it's a bit puzzling that it hasn't received
any attention.

Title:
  When resuming from suspend, user session is closed

Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When resuming from suspend, user session is closed.

  Scenario:

  I have open applications for work: Chromium, Emacs, etc. I'm using a
  laptop (ThinkPad T410s).

  When I close the lid, system goes to suspend.
  When opening the lid, system resumes.

  Expected: my user session is active, only locked when resuming; all
  previously open applications have saved their state, so I can continue
  working.

  What happens: my user session is closed, all my previously open
  applications are closed, I have lost everything that was not saved.

  I recall having seen a bug report about this same problem back in
  2011/2012, and it has not been solved, apparently.

  The workaround suggested back then was to disable screen lock when 
suspending, to prevent this from happening when resuming.
  This is akin to having a problematic door lock, and suggesting leaving your 
house door open to avoid issues.
