[2.0.5.6] device gets locked in background while being used
2.0.5.6 introduced a weird behaviour: If automatic device locking after a certain time is enabled, the device get's locked after this time even when using the device. The device lock gets activated in background of the running app and becomes visible when trying to access the home screen.
How to reproduce:
- Enable automatic device locking after a certain (short) time
- Launch an app and use it at least as long as the device lock timeout is.
- Swipe to access the home screen
Actual behaviour: Accessing the home screen is prevented by the security code input dialog. Expected behaviour: Accessing the home screen is possible as device only gets locked when it's inactive.
I assume this to be a bug. If it isn't: Why was this new behaviour introduced? IMHO this makes the OS less usable.
