Silly question: Is there a setting that will make my computer go back to the login screen upon wake from sleep (just the way WinXP does :eek: ).

I saw the setting to prompt for password upon wake, but I really want a way to sleep my system from my account (without having to exit to the login screen) and not have to worry about it waking up back into my account.
 
What is wrong with the "Require password to wake this computer from sleep" option (found in the Security part of sys prefs)? What is it that it does not do for you?
 
Then someone would need to know my password to login, no? My desire is that I want it to bounce to the regular user login screen after waking from sleep requiring no password until a user icon is selected. Is that too much to ask?
