It seems, then, that XDG is able to suspend the gnome screen
saver/locker, but gnome does not expose this ability in gnome's public
interface. I should be knocking on gnome's door, ... sound right?

XDG is installed on my fedora22 x86-64 desktop. I was unable to
reliably run a 3rd party screen saver until I wrote a utility to
automatically suspend the xdg screens saver. Basically, the util
1. Creates an X window
2. Calls xdg-screensaver suspend ID (ID = X ID of the X window)
3. Hangs around until it is asked to exit (usually till system shutdown).
This seems like overkill to suppress the xdg screen saver functionality.
Am I missing something on how XDG may be configured?
There is no "XDG screensaver". xdg-screensaver is just an interface for
whatever screensaver the desktop environment uses; e.g.,
gnome-screensaver, xscreensaver, and so on.
