webOS Allow auto-lock

Just downloaded the new webOS app.  Everything is working but in the preferences on the app there is an option to Allow auto-lock.  I was guessing this option would lock the remote screen so it would work like windows remote desktop.  This is not the case.  What does this preference do?  Will there be a feature to allow us to lock the remote screen so it works like RDP and not VNC?

Dear valued customer:

When the Auto-lock option is enabled, your TouchPad will automatically lock the device screen if you leave the screen unattended for a while. 

This option is default to disabled so that users will not be interrupted by the auto-lock when streaming video from the remote machine.

If you would like to lock the remote desktop screen, please use the on-screen keyboard to send Ctrl+Alt+Delete key combintation to the remote PC (Windows).

Best regards,
