Actually that doesn't work for me. It (CTRL-ALT-RARROW) only flips the 
workspace on your current X screen, but my 4 displays are split into two 
screens so if I was watching wide-screen wildlife videos on one set and 
browsing the web on the other, when I hit the hotkey it would probably 
hide only my web browsing, which might have somewhat embarrassing 
consequences.

I went with screen locking, because typing a password to get back in is 
no bad thing. If you just blank the display, sometimes mouse movement 
wakes it up - which is something most people would want to avoid in this 
hypothetical situation. Also, I've never really had a use for my 
scroll-lock key and it's easy to remember that the padlock symbol on it 
means it will lock my workstation...
