Throttle Lock With A Kick..."What If"

I had an experience where one was trying to unlock my phone by trying various patterns. Fortunately, they were unsuccessful. This account did spawn the thought...How hard would it be to implement a function within the Throttle Lock where after one or more incorrect patterns entered, an alarm would sound! Similar to the clock alarm setting...or a sound/ringtone downloaded. This would increase the security and deter further attempts! Any ideas and or support would be appreciated.

Or just have the screen display a crack or a bunch of dead pixles where she tries to unlock your phone. Then once you pickup your phone pretend to freak out

If you was to go over to throttlelauncher and suggest this to Albibo he may be able to implement or at least take it into consideration...throttlelock is a very good program!!! http://www.throttlelauncher.com/portal/
