Here's a use case where the assumption that autologin users don't want
or need their screens locked when returning from suspend doesn't hold
up: my disc is fully encrypted, so at boot time (normal start or resume
from hibernate) I'm asked for the  LUKS password. So there's no reason
to ask for the user password on login since I already authenticated
myself (I'm the only user of the machine). But when returning from
suspend I do not have to enter the LUKS password and therefore I want to
be asked the user password.

Gnome-power-manager has a gconf-key (apps=>gnome-power-
manager=>lock=>suspend) that configures whether the screen is locked
upon resume from suspend. If both locking and non-locking behaviour is
required it may be an option to create a similar key.
