Okay, was testing the "Lock my Phone" feature from the website this evening, and was playing music from my phone to see if the phone will stop all activity when it gets Locked. Since this feature is meant to be used when you "lose" your phone, it would make sense that you would want all currently active programs to be stopped, since something nefarious may be happening.
Well, as it turns out, it keeps programs running on Windows Phone 8.1. Music continues to play, and cannot be stopped until you enter the unlock code.
I have not been able to test this yet using Windows 10 for phones (W10p). I had to roll back, since I don't have a backup phone and my 635 is my daily driver. There were issues preventing me from doing things I needed to do, so waiting for those kinks to be worked out before I rejoin the program.
Could someone who is using W10p please test and see if it will stop programs? If not, we need to start a UserVoice requesting that feature.
