Sry for a late reply (sick and been sleeping) but the one 
Harald Sitter and I fiddled with during Akademy was kinda 
nice where it used a blurred version of your wallpaper.

1) It didn't reveal the nature of your wallpaper (we tested, 
extensively)
2) It creates the sensation of "fading to desktop" when 
unlocked.

If it IS somehow a security issue I don't know but it was 
waaaaay cooler than having a random wallpaper set by 
default which made the login process from a lock screen 
feel jerky and out of phase.
