<pre>This would be useful for programs that want to manage the screensaver, to
minimise polling. For example, Caffeine inhibits the screensaver if a window is
full-screen. It currently checks every 30 seconds (a reasonable minimum), but
if the screensaver timeout were known, it could check that often minus a few
seconds and save CPU time and power.</pre>
