Think roommates or children or whatever.  i.e. I'm fine with walking away and 
coming back to find a roommate checking their webmail on my computer.  I 
however would be displeased if instead they were reading say my webmail.  I 
also wouldn't approve of them ordering things using my credit card.

This is a common case.

There's been a lot of talk here about this or that ultra cool security 
feature.  We're forgetting common cases.  Most folks aren't going to go 
digging through configuration files to find a weakly encrypted password.  On 
the other hand leaving things wide open just because you walked away with 
your screen unlocked is a bad idea.
