I was playing around with my Nexus phone last week when I first got it. I was messing the screen sleep settings. I could have sworn there was option either associated with that or somewhere in the settings where it asked you how long it would take for the phone to lock the screen after it went to sleep.

OS = Jelly Bean
 
On my RAZR Maxx, it's under Settings/Security/Automatically lock

Yes! what I found out was my phone didn't have the feature on, it had no lock screen AT ALL on (derp).

What I did find out though, is that when you set up a pattern line lock, the timer setting automatically appears.
The timer setting does not appear without any type of lock as it would be pointless

(opposed to 4.2 when Google allowed you to use the feature without a lock screen)

Google still should tell us of the changes they make, even the helpful ones :P
 
My Razr Maxx is still on 4.1.2, and the automatically lock timer option doesn't show up if you choose "No Lock" or "Slide"--it only shows up if you choose PIN, Pattern, or Face Unlock (which makes sense, as you mention). Are you sure there was an automatically lock timer on 4.2 even without a lock screen? Because not setting a lock screen means there's nothing to automatically lock to.
 
Sorry for late reply, I'm positive as I never put locks on my phone (risky motherf**ker). This being said, perhaps your RAZR Maxx did not allow it because of the Motorola skin?
