So I close this again. The initially reported bug was fixed in comment 3, and it was determined that the people who still experience this have a local configuration which disables locking.

I verified the default settings in karmic:

 * /apps/gnome-screensaver/lock_enabled is "false" by default (locking after screen saver timeout), which still makes sense IMHO. It was like this in all previous Ubuntu releases, changing it now would be unexpected, and you can easily enable it in the screensaver settings.

 * /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/use_screensaver_settings is also false by default, and /suspend and /hibernate are true, meaning that it does lock by default.
