Well, xflock4 is broken by design, so I think the following patch (from
upstream bz) is still better than the current state... The only
brokenness I noticed is that switch user (from the panel plugin for
actions like lock, switch, sleep, logout, etc.) does not enable
screensaver when I'm using mate-screensaver (maybe I forgot to set
something), so I'm switching by locking first and switching from
screensaver. No other problems noticed after a couple of months of
usage.
