Some static Screen, Display or Desktop object, Qt has qApp->desktop().

Yes only one option for both DPMS and screensaver from application

and restore it again, so it wouldn't have to remember if it was on or
not. (Pushing my luck a bit further, and when the application exits it
would automatically be restored :-)
