This would be only for Access Unattended sessions. I would not want this to be a global setting (web.config). I have installed the Extension for locking the computer when the host disconnects. We would also like to automate this task since it is something we have to remember to do each time we connect to a workstation.

DefaultSupportSessionInfoAttributes and DefaultAccessSessionInfoAttributes For each you can choose enabled(checked)/disable(unchecked) for Monitor Blanked, Input Blocked, and Wake Lock. Those become the default settings, but each can be overridden once in the session. I don't think changes to the Web.config file require a client reinstall to apply.

I'll give it a try.
