When interacting with the computer in an innocuous manner, the screen
saver should not be interrupted.

For instance, my RF kill switch for this laptop is on the side of this
computer and is not related to the keyboard.  It's physical positioning
indicates the state of the wireless radio, so having something mentioned
to me on screen is superfluous.  Thus, when I turn on or off my wireless
radio, the screen saver should not be interrupted.

Similarly, when I turn up or down the volume via keyboard hot keys, the
screen saver should not be interrupted.  The Gnome volume bar could
still show up, on top of the screen saver, but the simple action of
turning up or down the volume should not affect the screen saver.

Actions that I think should not affect the screen saver:

* Turning on/off the Wifi via the keyboard or other external means.  (RF Kill 
switch)
* Checking the status of the battery.  A pop-up similar to the Gnome volume bar 
could be used.
* Turning up or down the screen brightness.
* Turning up or down the speaker volume.

** Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
