Title:
  If a client machine has a menu display on screen, and  then the
  client's screen is  locked with Epoptes master, the menu remains
  displayed and active on top of the locked screen.

Status in Epoptes:
  New

Bug description:
  Even though I am not a security expert, I think this is a potential security 
vulnerabity as it enable a client to execute a command on the machine even if 
they have been lockout.
  For example,  if I click on the application menu of an of edubuntu 10.04 
(which is an epoptes client)  and leave the menu displayed, if I am locked out 
from an epoptes master machine, I would still be able to execute and of the 
programs on the displayed menu, even though I have been locked out.
