To answer my own question, it seems to be this command: gnome-screensaver-command --deactivate
Ah, I would have more readily found :
killall gnome-screensaver rm -f /usr/bin/gnome-screensaver
Because, compared to xscreensaver, gnome-screensaver really follows the mentality outlined in Uncyclopedia :
« If you find a feature, it might confuse a user, so remove it. »
Because none of the options of each screensaver are available in the GNOME dialogues, despite the fact that there's a shitload of XML interface files coming with the plugins, and that the only goal of those files is to actually allow to to build those dialogues automatically, and despite the fact that it's already implemented with Gtk outside of the GNOME distribution, possibly in a programme that gnome-screensaver is a fork of.
