Screen locks despite video being played #4

Hello! I just left the computer to go to the store, and left a Youtube video (stream) playing in Brave (very similar to and based on Chromium). While the monitors have been set to turn off after 5 minutes using an xset command (see issue #3 ), and this did NOT happen due to the video being played, however when I came back the screen lock had been activated.

This could be an issue especially at lower timeouts when watching videos and especially when playing games with a controller (since there would be long periods without mouse/keyboard activity).

I believe the functionality that would have to be implemented is either https://linux.die.net/man/1/xdg-screensaver (xdg-screensaver), where cutefish-screenlocker would handle "suspend" events and not lock the screen when a video or game is active. Either that, or it could have to do with DBus as described in this link: https://people.gnome.org/~mccann/gnome-screensaver/docs/gnome-screensaver.html

I apologize for creating so many issues, I'm just trying to help you make Cutefish into an even better desktop, it's already great!
