[Bug 1502145] Re: Apps can keep screen lit permanently

 

I'm reopening the unity-system-compositor task, because the bug still
exists there. Even if oxide will lift the screen lock when unfocused,
who's to say other apps will behave well, too?

We need to make sure that only the foreground app can request a screen
lock, which means we need to refactor how it works and have the shell
proxy the requests to u-s-c.

Bug description:
  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:
  * install and start Siete
  * put it in background

  Expected outcome:
  * the display is switched off after a predetermined amount of time

  Actual outcome:
  * 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.
