[MPlayer-users] Move mouse to disable screensaver

All XKCD jokes aside, can a feature be added to mplayer to move the
mouse every X seconds to prevent the screensaver from activating? As
is it, I launch mplayer through a script that sets some preferences
(such as -zoom). Can I add something to that script which wiggles the
mouse?

Relevant joke:

Thanks in advance.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
