To be fair, I intend to use it on my Linux box which I do development on.
Often enough while working on the game, it crashes, and the screensaver
doesn't get re-enabled. So, I find my monitor eating power and burnt in
too often.
For games there's no reason to disable the screensaver, unless your game
doesn't have mouse or keyboard input :)
