When the XF86ScreenSaver key is used to put a laptop to sleep (or to
trigger the screensaver), the key may "bounce" on resume. This is
annoying as i3lock will try to validate several empty passwords and
wait several seconds before accepting a legit password.
Some users may want to validate an empty password: PAM may rely on
other sources to unlock the screen, like the presence of a token or
the proximity of some Bluetooth device. Hence, we don't forbid this
possibility and provide an command-line option for users not willing
to validate empty passwords.
