Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

If you leave any menu open the screensaver will not kick in. You can
verify this by setting the timeout to 1 minute and then opening the
Applications menu and waiting.

Further more there is a second part to this bug. When you do come back
to your PC and close the menu then the screensaver does fadse in, even
if you are wiggling the mouse you must wait for it to fade out and then
wiggle again to get the screen back.

I would say this could also be a security bug as you will not be logged
out when you think you would automatically be so.
