Jamie, I agree that resurrecting the XIdle extension may be a good idea.
One may want to add new features - but this doesn't have to happen in one step:
We can reinclude the old version and add new things in the future.

However I'm curious why the MIT-SCREEN-SAVER extension doesn't meet your needs:
It is very easy to receive an event when the time for the screen saver has
expired (ie. no input has been made). So I assume that the overhead with the
'screen saver window' doesn't meet your needs.
