holmBrew is on a distinguished road
there is a short cut

locking the screen this way is the same as password protecting the screensaver. just turn on password protection in the screensaver pref pane and set an activation area.

i have my machines set so that whenever i walk away from my desk i just push my mouse pointer to the upper right hand corner and that activates the screensaver...then when i return i move the mouse or hit a key and i ma prompted to enter my password...

simple.
