> so if you want a different screensaver, you need to have a different compositor?
As I recall xscreensaver supports its different timewasters by each being an external program from the main screen lock, it would seem that a lock implemented in the compositor would likely operate the same way. The screen lock itself has a very well defined function and UI and could easily be hardwired in, especially if that gets rid of a bunch of failure cases.
