*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

I have a laptop with led backlight.

When the locking the screen and then hitting return key the old screen(screen 
before lock) is displayed for a short period then the lock screen is displayed. 
I assume this is because if I
had an older style backlight the delay would be happing while the backlight is 
warning up.
Since this is an led backlight there is no warm up (delay) between turning on 
the screen backlight
and the display showing.

This is a also a security problem because any person walking up to the lock 
laptop can see what
was on the screen before locking without a password.

If need I can record the whole thing with my smart phone to show the
security issue.
