I tried a number of times to change the "Lock after computer is idle for XXX minutes" preference value several times, and found that every time although there was no error shown, the value wasn't retained -- it stuck at the (I suppose) default value of 5 minutes after I quit and restarted the program.

Eventually I worked out that for some reason the value I typed into the field wasn't being saved when I simply typed it and closed the preferences window. However, typing it, clicking onto a different tab in the preferences window (I used "Watchtower") and then back, and then closing the preferences window, did cause my new value to be saved.

FWIW. Seems like an easy bug to fix.
