But *WHY* do we have to run around in rings to do something that should be
simple, just not to miff inoperative upstream maintenance. Let's DIVERGE if
we want something good, while upstrem pushes something bad.

Really, the screensaver is not important. Fine, then, let's fix it too,
because this Ubuntu Papercuts program is for fixing unimportant things that
are badly done and are pebbles in the sandal on the road to a totally smooth
user experience. And it should be a very simple fix, it is not as we're
trying to reimplement the window manager (which has been done for the
Netbook Release).

Leave the screensaver config program alone, but create an additional
> program that edits a particular .desktop file. A user simply sets their
> screensaver to this special one, and uses this hypothetical tool to
> configure the screensaver as they actually like. gnome-screensaver need
> not know of this at all.
