I suggest that if someone sets themselves up to log in automatically,
the "Lock Screen" command is insensitive by default.

Then, if it is possible to get a User Interface Freeze exception for
this, I suggest that in the "Users and Groups" settings, the bottom of
the "Password" section for your user account should have a checkbox,
"Allow locking the screen (requires password to unlock)". If you are
using automatic login, the checkbox should be unchecked by default,
otherwise it should be checked by default. If it is checked, the "Lock
Screen" item should be sensitive.

In the long term, the various security settings should be consolidated
into a single Security control panel.
