James,

The option is there - just hidden in gconf-editor at
/apps/gnome-power-manager/lock_on_blank_screen - just untick the box.

Alternatively, from a bash shell, just run "gconftool --type bool
--set /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock_on_blank_screen false"

Regards, Martin

Best option is to search for an existing bug and add a comment, if you
can't find one, create one.
