Can't unlock screen when using a password-less account
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
I created a password-less account for my Mom, that is, in the Ubuntu Installer (or maybe later, using users-admin, I don't think it really matters) I created an account, inserted no password and checked the "don't ask for a password on login" checkbox. After tweaking the permissions a bit, it works fine for her. The only (quite big) problem is that when the screen is locked, either by locking it manually or after a user-switch, you simply can't unlock it, since it asks for a password that I never set.
I think that gnome-screensaver simply shouldn't ask for a password for this type of accounts.
