Whether xscreensaver-demo's DPMS settings are grayed out depends on one and only one thing: whether XQueryExtension "DPMS" says "yes" or "no".

If what you are trying to say is, "I have a feature request, and that is for xscreensaver not do anything at all about DPMS and let it be 100% handled by xset instead", my answer to that is "no, I think that is a terrible idea".
