[Bug 1426597] [NEW] please respect org.gnome.desktop.screensaver idle-activation-enabled key

 

Public bug reported:

GNOME Screensaver allowed me to disable screen blanking while still
having the desktop marked idle if I don't touch it for some time. Unity
allows the "idle-activation-enabled" key for schema compatibility but
does not use it at all; the UI for disabling screen blanking implicitly
disables marking the system idle altogether (this was true in GNOME
too).

I don't have a patch ready right now but will work on one.
