If Kerberos tickets are renewed, the plugin will refresh the AFS 
tokens.  However, the screensaver doesn't do this, and I don't know of 
any way to make it do that.  The screensaver lock doesn't support 
Kerberos passwords generally, or anything other than local passwords.  
My guess would be that if Apple added support for Kerberos passwords to 
the screensaver, ticket/token renewal would come for free.
