It seems that screen considers these events one and the same -- the manual on lockscreen: "Meanwhile processes in the windows may continue, as the windows are in the `detached' state." A locked screen is, essentially, a detached screen, hence the double prompt. That said, could you not write/modify a screen locker to read the crypted password in your screenrc (instead of /etc/passwd)? This would mean one password (although there still would be two prompts).
