.. and throw an ugly warning instead! It happens from time to time that user has to switch to native console (CTRL-ALT-F{2..6}) to fix/kill something. Any such login shell (not explicitly logged-out) might there survive for ages and become to be an open door for attacks. Or please provide this function at least as an optional feature.

This is outside the scope of kscreenlocker and in general of a desktop environment.
Because I'd like to have this fixed, some day (not never), where can I forward this?
Personally I think this is the job of whatever application runs on the virtual terminal. It needs something like a lock screen. So that once you switch away from the vt, it automatically locks the vt.
Hms, that's interesting re-definition of the problem :). Thanks. Is there a portable (across environments) way to lock the screen so I can file a bug against the app in question?
Sorry I don't know.
