resume from suspend doesn't present a locked screen
In F15 Beta, suspending doesn't lock the screen, so resuming from
suspend-to-ram doesn't ask you to enter your password--I think this is
a security risk (or at least an inconvenience) because anyone could
come along later and access your session if you forget to manually
lock the screen.
Would the desktop team consider implementing auto-screen-lock on
suspend please?
Thanks.

Hmmm, when I suspend to ram, I get the lock screen on resume (and have
for a while now). Is your machine current on updates?
Later,

It does for me, and has for weeks.

Strange. I'm all up-to-date as well, but it has /never/ done this
correctly for me. I most recently re-installed from the F15 Beta TC2
i686 Live image. Could this be a setting that is different on the
Live image vs. DVD?

There's no reason they should differ.

Y'know what, this morning I resumed from suspend and it *wasn't* locked.
So maybe this is just a brand new bug.
