How about starting something like this from the session script?

#!/bin/bash
while true; do
   sleep $some_time;
   if mouse_moved || key_pressed; then
     continue;
   else
     dcop ksmserver ksmserver logout <some numbers>
   fi
done

where mouse_moved and key_pressed are functions that query X or 
something like that for whether the mouse was moved of the keyborad was 
used in the last $some_time seconds, e.g. with something like polling
dcop kdesktop KScreenSaverIface isBlanked
periodically...?
