Just thought I'd mention that this is already the case with the session
dialog I made (with the 6 buttons) : it doesn't stop the screensaver
from being activated.

I couldn't check whether this is true with the two upstream dialogs
though, since the screensaver seetings won't let it appear sooner than
after 1 minute :)

Cheers,
Manu
