Bug Description Xscreensaver ignores QPrompt's scrolling activity

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install xscreensaver
  2. Select blank screen/ 1 minute trigger
  3. Start scrolling default text, 1280x720/60 fullscreen at default scroll speed.
  4. at 1 minute, scroll animation appears to halt, screen goes blank.
  5. wait a few seconds then move mouse, screen reappears however scrolling continued during screensaver activity.

Expected behavior xscreen saver should recognize screen activity similar to playing a video onscreen and not engage.

This is one of those features that has to be implemented once per operating system.

I've already started looking into it for Android, but haven't had much success implementing it. My progress with Android can be found at issue #78.

Let's use this thread for updates on the Linux, Windows and Mac implementations, and keep the other discussion solely for the mobile systems.
