Again, a hack (although I'm not quite as clear how this would be
implemented): check the man page for xscreensaver-command for ways around
this.  One simple thing might to run something like the following script
in a terminal before starting up GQview:

#!/bin/bash

while true
do
  sleep 30
  xscreensaver-command -deactivate
done

Having something built into GQview that does this automatically would be
nice, though.
