--- Comment #1 from Henry <henry at escapelab.com.au> ---
Our web app displays long running photo slideshows and we would love this feature. Like many other sites, we are currently forced to use the 'nosleep' library (https://github.com/richtr/NoSleep.js/) to keep the display awake, but a native solution would be preferable, and presumably much better for battery life.

We also use the 'nosleep' library when users are performing long running file uploads (e.g. large selections of photos), because whenever the screen goes to sleep the upload dies. (I assume this problem would be better solved by allowing background uploads of some sort, but at the moment 'nosleep' seems to be the only option).
