    On a single user system which either hibernates or shuts fully down you might as well long in automatically after you type in your 16 character encryption pass phrase. A login screen does not in any way provide additional security. Note this doesn’t actually prevent you from locking the screen and unlocking still requires your password.

      I join that my setup. Hibernate after 15min and disk encryption and autologin on boot, but password is asked when going out of sleep for the 15 first minutes.
