CTRL+ALT+L has no effect, and the menu in right-upper corner doesn't include a
Lock command. I assume this functionality requires GDM?

I think this is a graceful way of handling the "GDM is not present" case. Note
that users who want screen locking can still achieve it by other means, e.g.
xscreensaver-command -lock (or xlockmore, whatever happened to it??).
