Agree on the point that it's currently too pad-oriented.

As to the question, current behavior is hard-coded, though an extension
might suit this need. Personally I am not bothered by the current
lifting settings, as current screen shield can display various messages
(other than clock, it can show mail notifications, play tracks with
controls, software/RSS udpates and others). A lot of times, I just wake
up the screen to have a look at these messages. If I'm really in a hurry
to get back to my work, I can hit the Return/Space or start typing
passwords without delay. However options to enable old ways to lift
shield is also nice.

FYI, scroll up the mouse wheel also lift the "shield".
