    try iAlertu, I don't know if it's too gimmicky but could be worth a look.

    try deskshade http://macrabbit.com/deskshade/

    not quite the exact thing you're looking for, you can lock the screen and any attempts to unlock it will be logged and displayed when you unlock it with the right password

    iAlertU gives the best options imho and doesn't just covering touching keyboard it also covers unplugging the power and simply moving the laptop.

    I would NEVER leave my laptop unsupervised, except in my own home.
