I have a working patch that makes gnome-screensaver display (and save) a
Tomboy note instead of sending a notification. The patch is maintained
in bzr.

I'd appreciate knowing whether people think that is a better solution
than just sending a notification or popping up some dialog.

It is very much a work-in-progress at the moment though, and has a few
rough edges. For example, it will fall back to notifications if Tomboy
isn't running, even though Tomboy ships a DBus service (it should just
start Tomboy). It currently sets the title of the note to the data and
time that the note was left, but I don't know if that is the correct
thing to do. If any of the DBus calls to Tomboy fail, the note gets
silently lost and doesn't fall back to using notifications yet. And I
was going to use a gconf key to set whether to use notifications or
Tomboy.
