** please keep me in CC **

While stepping across the ksmserver/screenlocker/greeter/* code i noticed that there's 
(intended) support to show the screensaver on pressing esc, but no equivalent to 
re/activate dmps (DPMSForceLevel, "xdpms force off")

I've failed to find resp. API in powerdevil (and don't at hand know what it 
does or whether that is important)

Should there be (and i don't point Frameworks here):
- an extension to the powerdevil workspace lib API (which will either make use 
of the Dpms lib or call xdpms internally; i don't know, but it's configurable 
through the kcm)
- a prop. implementation in the locker preferably using
 * xdpms (pro: runtime resolution. con: we call a different process; security 
flaw)
 * the Dpms lib (con: compile time dependency)

Cheers,
Thomas
