I completely dissagree with this feature request! If I have locked my screen, I did it for a reason. And that reason was, I didn't want _anyone_ else to use my system. There should be no way for another user to overide it. Only the system administrator should be allowed to do something, and that probably would entail killing my processes. > I come along, find one of my kids has locked the screen, and I can > either 'ctrl-atl-tab' or go and look for him. Bein able to just nest > a new session would be great. Your problem appears to be that you want to disable the screen locking mechanism so your kids can't lock _you_ out. If you need another 'session' you could always flip to another screen, login, do your stuff (even startx), log out, and leave the kids' screen still locked and untouched.
