Screen saver locks prevent all application access, not just web or non-web, so I'm not sure why it's one or the other. It's the shared machine case where the problems come up, in which case it's best to talk about *that* problem, and not the general one.

Anyway, the way to get it implemented is filing an RFE for it. It's really too big a change for this version this late, so it needs to get tracked so it doesn't get forgotten.
