Having been one of the people who complained I want to point out that, in the
discussion it was also said to have at least some tutorials and some examples
on how to write animation for the screen locker, and present this material as
part of 4.10 "advertising", to help people recreate their favourite
animations.
Is this documentation available somewhere? There is still time to use it as
part of the 4.10 announcement.
