Look at the screen at an angle, most fingers will leave a greasy trail behind allowing you to unlock the screen at will

Here is a current and interesting thread I found over at XDA recently. It deals with resetting the pattern lock through ADB by pushing commands through the console.

Could be worth a read through, definitely an intriguing work around. Here's the link:
