Comment (by lennart):

 In a thin client setup PA and the X server would run on the client while
 GNOME and gnome-screensaver would live on the server side. That means that
 having this as module inside PA is problematic since it cannot really
 contact the D-Bus session bus of the GNOME session. I'd thus say that the
 proper place for this logic would be in a gnome-settings-daemon module
 that hooks into PA as well as gnome-screensaver.

 Also, you probably don't want too inhibit the screensaver but only the
 DPMS-part of it. AFAIK no screensaver inhibiting interface that currently
 exists allows such "fine-grained" inhibiting.
