It works as expected on my box with Gnome 3.18.2.  Screen blanking is
set in the Power settings and screen locking in the Privacy settings.

It might be worth posting this to the CentOS mailing lists too, in case

But whereas I previously held for Java a cordial dislike borne of
having only a cursory notion of how it worked, now my dislike for the
