I have written a small in-house program to do what you have suggested.  It
is not a version of screen blank, it instead is an independent program
which watches the keyboard and mouse and locks the screen after a
pre-defined wait period.  You can run this program simultaneously with
lockscreen if you want the functionality of both.  I've included the
program below and it's available via anonymous ftp on
corona.ITD.MsState.EDU.
