I was wrong.  The settings are very confusing but it seems that what you want is 
actually possible.

What you need to do is set:
"Lock computer when screen turns off" -> off
"Lock the computer when inactive" -> <Time you want the screensaver to start>

This second setting is very badly worded, it's not related to locking at all, 
it's about when the screensaver starts.

I've sent a pull request upstream to change the wording to something 
more sensible.
