Re: [android-developers] ICS Recent apps thumbnails

That's an **excellent** question, one you might consider forwarding to
security@android.com if you don't get an answer here. I certainly
can't think of a way to control this behavior, but I can certainly see
all sorts of trouble that this could cause.

:: pause while I kick myself for not thinking of this ::

If you think of it, keep me (or the list) apprised of any off-list
suggestions you may get.
