Bug#813410: lock screen is not working when logged into gnome from sddm

package: sddm, gdm3, gnome-session
severity: important

Now it seems gnome session can lock screen only if logged in from gdm3
(isn't there a standard for display managers? is gnome breaking the
standard of sddm not implementing a new standard? can't changes be
better coordinated among DEs, can't we use freedesktop.org?). It makes
the whole system insecure as laptops when left unattended could be
misused by anyone without auto lock.

Same issue for switch user.
