Title:
  Locked computer shows last screen for a moment

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I'm away from my Ubuntu laptop for a while the screen becomes
  black (I think it powers down) as expected. If then I move the mouse
  or hit any key the last screen is shown for about one to two seconds
  (I think depending on the workload of the machine) before the password
  prompt is displayed. This allows strangers to retrieve confidential
  information even from a screen locked computer.

  Obviously, the expected behaviour is to not show the last screen but
  display the password prompt immediately.
