Public bug reported:
This was different in Ubuntu 18.04 (and Windows). There it just turns
off the screen and when you move your mouse again, there is no need to
login. I'm using this functionality a lot because I don't use automatic
blank screen - I prefer controlling that manually. Not sure what package
controls that, possibly a udev rule?
(PS: I was thinking about whether this is actually a bug or a feature
change. But I reached the conclusion that it actually *is* a bug because
turning off the screen and locking the OS are two independent actions -
you can also lock the OS without locking the screen and the fn key
clearly refers to the screen.)
