Feature Request: Run if User Has Locked Machine

We've had some situations where it would be great if we could update some software -while- the user is logged in, but is not actively using it. PDQ has the status to run if logged in and not logged in... and it knows whether or not someone has locked the machine. Can we get an option to run if machine is locked by user?

You can create a collection for this.

Create a collection to Filter for, Computer > Current User > Contains > (locked). Set the package to start with a scan step. You can also set the package to only run if the device is part of PDQ Inventory Collection or attach a schedule to the package.

While I'd rather have a built-in step, this will work also, thanks!
