We need unity8 to proxy the screen request to u-s-c on behalf of the
app, clearing it when the requesting app goes out of focus/view.

Webbrowser app still needs investigation as it should behave correctly
here, but it might not get enough time to release the screen lock.

** Also affects: unity8 (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Also affects: qtmir (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

  rc-proposed, r140, krillin
  
  There are times when it seems the display blanking policy stops working
  and the display stays on until I press the power button.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
- None, sorry
+ * install and start Siete
+ * put it in background
  
  Expected outcome:
- the display is switched off after a predetermined amount of time
+ * the display is switched off after a predetermined amount of time
  
  Actual outcome:
- The display stays on forever
+ * the display stays on forever
+ 
+ ======
+ 
+ Now that apps can request the screen to stay on, they can do so
+ regardless of whether they're focused/visible or not.

** Summary changed:

- screen does not blank after timeout expires
+ Apps can keep screen lit permanently
