 FOR SCREENSAVER:
-* use [Un]Inhibit together as a SimulateUserActivity workalike
-	* disablegss.py from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=284804
-	* this method doesn't work either.  tried in gss-poke.py
-* xdg-screensaver suspend / resume to SimulateUserActivity
-	* http://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib-tutorial/2nd-program-anatomy.html
-	* http://portland.freedesktop.org/xdg-utils-1.0beta3/xdg-screensaver.html
-* SimulateUserActivity
-	* does it work on other people's machines?
-		* find if other people have their gnome-screensaver run even if they set
-		screensaver timeout to 1 minute and run:
-		for ((i = 0; i < 999; i++)); do
-			sleep 50;
-			gnome-screensaver-command --poke;
-		done;
+* gnome-screensaver-command --poke
 	* find irc channel to ask if my understanding is correct
 	* file bug
 	* track down bug
 		* compile gnome-screensaver
-* cli opt parse
-	* quiet mode
-		* no display window
-		* no text printed to terminal
-* fire up the face detector only just before going to inactive mode.
-	* that way the camera isn't running all the time
-	* maybe start 10 seconds before going inactive, then run until activity
-* be more aggressive with turning off the screen.  dim the screen as soon as
-it's not being looked at.  turn it off soon thereafter.
-	* could be enough to save battery.  would need to power the camera sometimes,
-	but would save on backlight.  need to test.
-* don't prevent sleep when face is detected, but user isn't actually looking at
-screen.
-	* requires pose estimation.
-	* also requires estimating the direction of the eye.
-
-OTHER IDEAS:
-* authenticating a user based on face recognition (as opposed to face
-detection)
-	* much more difficult to do reliably
-	* use object tracking and emotion estimation to require a set of facial
-	expressions as authentication.
-		* awesome for people who find typing hard, eg: no hands
