Actually I found in bug #39448 that all options are configurable in
gconf-editor. (Kudos to the gnome-power-manager guys).

In gnome-power-manager-> lock there is a key use_screen_saver_settings,
which is default 'true' in Debian. IMHO this is the sane value, the user
can choose if he/she wants to lock the screen after resuming from gnome-
screensaver/gnome-power-manager.

Now in Hardy Heron RC the default is to always lock the screen when
resuming from suspend, with no place for average user to find this or
change this behaviour.

I have no problem with a default setting in gnome-screensaver for
locking the screen, but the 'magic' value 'lock screen' for gnome-
powermanagement is not very helpful. And if you are OK with locking the
screen after the gnome-screensaver you are usually also OK with locking
the screen after a suspend and vice-versa.

My suggestion is to follow the Debian way and change the default in
gnome-powermanagent->lock to use_screensaver_settings and disable the
confusing always lock after suspend/hibernate.
