Martin, On the Inspiron 1420 w/ NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS graphics, The screen is completely black (although note that the backlight is lit) whether or not the blank screensaver is locked, or not.
I am not seeing that problem, so it may be specific to certain models of the graphics. It may also be that I don't experience the issue because of personal customizations to xorg.conf, and .nvidia-settings-rc. I can test with a stock xorg and nvidia-glx-new installation, if you feel that would be helpful.
