Some ideas - none of these tested or tried :)

LEP - and use commands to bring the desktop to the fore and then 4D?
Move mouse to the menu bar, and post a click?

On launch of 4D use LEP to reset screen saver timeout, reset on quit
On launch of 4D use LEP to reset power timeout, reset on quit

LEP to open and then close a desktop window
open an off screen window (in 4D, with a web area), launch a connection 
to a safe url (apple or microsoft).

maybe even just touch the disk... pick a folder (desktop, or your 
database) and Get Document list
write an empty file to some safe location, and delete it.
