I've been closing all bugreports similar to this as a duplicate of LP: #49579 because all the time-based locking mechanisms are so brittle that none can be expected to work reliably.
Has this changed with the new Unity-based lockscreen? Will an application grabbing the mouse (indicators, menus, etc.) prevent the screen locker from locking? Or does the new Unity lock screen break those grabs in a fashion that locking can work reliably? (I'm skeptical.)

This means that on waking the machine the fade is still occurring and the desktop is partially visible potentially exposing information protected by the lock.
