    Don't fade to black when locking the screen
    
    Fading to black has negative security consequences: the screen locking
    and actual suspend race with each other, and this can result in the
    screen's contents being briefly visible after resume.
    
    This has been reported as #54 but has been known and patched for in
    Debian/Ubuntu since at least 2010 (see LP 546578).
