The application can use dcop dirrectly
i think the dcop call to 
kdesktop KScreensaverIface setEnabled true/false
will do what mplayer need.

I used similar things in Kopete to connect to the dcop signal in order to go 
away when screen is locked.

But this only work in KDE environment.

or maybe you don't like the fact that application need to call dcop. You want 
to do a class that do handle the call, and you ask where to put it ?
probably in kdelibs/interfaces.  it's the place where KIMProxy and 
KMediaPlayer interface are, and it's quite similar, isn't it ?
