When we restricted access to the launcher and indicators while passcode/passphrase is set, we received a lot of complains because people thought it is broken.
Other operating systems deal with it in different ways: - Android disables everything, you need to opt in showing certain/all things when your device is passcode/swipe-code protected. - The Windows OS allows access initially but their system settings allow users to set what can be accessed (similar to Android). - iOS is allowing access as well and users need to restrict it manually from System Settings. Bottom line, it depends on the type of user what they want to do in the end. Security concerned people will have the option to switch access off, others might not be bothered at all. But if you are just booting up the phone and e.g. set up a simple passcode it is still nice to show what is available.
