No indication that lock screen is suppressed

Bug description:
Some applications suppress the screensaver, preventing the computer
from automatically locking. It is possible to be completely unaware of
such an application or process.
This is a security issue. I sometimes come back to my computer only to
realise that it never locked itself, yet it's set to time out after a
minute.
I suggest that when the screensaver is suppressed, an icon should
appear in the indicator applet, as does for elevated privileges (See
the screenshot).
