Actually, xscreensaver does not need to start at startup; the daemon can
be started within lxlock, if needed. But xscreensaver needs to be
installed, of course. I wrote a replacement script for lxlock that tries
to lock by xscreensaver; see the attachement for more details.

Still, there is a problem with how lxlock is used by e.g. the suspend
function of the Logout Lubuntu dialog: It runs lxlock in background and
does not check, if it ran successfully before entering the suspend mode,
see Bug #1054299
