I am wondering if we are not seeing face unlock for ICS on Nexus S device because of the 1 megapixel difference in front facing camera.

Has there been any mention of it being there? Did it work on the AOSP roms?

Facelock can and does work on an NS4G, just not very well due to the VGA front camera. I added it on to my phone and when the lighting was right it worked great. After about a day, it started annoying me, as half the time it did not recognize and i had to enter a code each time. It will work, but not always which is why we wont get it. It is easy to add, but IMO not worth the trouble.
