Screensaver not inhibited while watching Youtube

[typo]

It's very annoying that when I want to watch a Youtube video after some time the screen will go black. I also don't want to manually deactivate the screensaver each time I want to watch a video or always have to move my mouse when I see that the screen turns more and more black.

I agree. The flash plugin should use the inhibit API.
