Swaymsg desktop commands (focus, switch workspace) not considered activity

[andrewbaxter]

I'm using keymapper to run swaymsg directly to switch workspaces and stuff. I have a very short idle time (60s) and sometimes when I'm actively switching between workspaces for a minute the screen goes blank. I think that swayidle probably only monitors input and not ipc-initiated events, and keymapper is intercepting the inputs before sway/swayidle.
