This was too bothering for me so I put a TFTP and configured to boot from
the server (I have RPi2/3/4 diskless).

I am not sure if it is Firefox issue at all. IMO the problem is (as
mentioned elsewhere) that we do not use DBus. Firefox would use
org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver interface to disable screensaver, dimming,
hibernation etc. while you are watching something. I completely disabled
the screensaver, but I was just looking (I mean exactly before I read this
message) into the DBus spec and into the code (kdesktop_lock) and thinking
how much effort would be to implement.
