Mathieu, All good points, but the same could be possible on a normal login screen without the need for a "shield".

Also, along with Lynn, I don't understand why there has to be a shield at all, at least on a typical computer (which is still, I thought, what GNOME was supposed to be designed for).
One thing it does very well is showing you all the things you missed while you were gone.
I used to miss notifications before, because I wouldn't always think about looking at the message tray for stacked notifications which had been sent while I was gone.
With the shield, I can quickly see if I received a chat message, or anything else, as soon as I go back to the computer.
Plus, my girlfriend can now pause my annoying music without having to call me so I enter my password, which she likes.
