I think that lockscreen is specific to the current window.  I have
found that the following tends to work if you want to lock another window.
set the lockscreen of window 2 to true
I am not sure how I figured this out as it doesn't seem to be
documented anywhere.

Be warned that lockscreen has some bugs and doesn't lock every visual
operation (such as highlites).
