Screen saver / Gaim interaction problems on edgy

On edgy, after the screen saver has been activated, my gaim stayed in the "Away" status after having unlocked the session. Since I did'nt want to dig into gaim's sources, I am using a warkaround based on dbus. The trick should be useful for anything related to screen-saver state.

The main script is here (highly inspired by this one), and calls a slightly modified version of the gaim_remote.py script coming with the sources (details of the changes here).

Put the latter in your PYTHONPATH or update the sys.path.append() in the first script. Run gnome-session-properties and add gaim-lock-daemon.py to the startup programs.
