[LightDM] dm-tool lock confusion

Hi,

I was just made aware of the “dm-tool lock” command, which I find pretty
confusing. What it does is actually just to open a new vt with a login
screen, it doesn't actually lock the screen, as far as I can tell.
What's the reason for calling it lock? I think it might confuse people
and have them left their session unlocked and free to use.

Regards,
