Package: xscreensaver
Version: 4.21-3
Severity: wishlist

First of all, I realize this might be a big thing to implement, and I 
don't expect anything soon.  I expect my request considered, but not 
necessarily dealt with any time soon (although I wouldn't mind :-).

Anyway, my system isn't the fastest in the world.  Some hacks (like 
xanalogtv) that do full-screen animations have a frame-rate that make 
them look not-so-good.

I'd like to be able to make a global setting saying what the lowest 
frame rate I'm prepared to accept is.  If a screen saver cannot keep up, 
it should either attempt to catch up (by lowering complexity, 
resolution or whatever) or if that's not possible, yield to the next 
screen saver.

The situation where all hacks are just skipped for this reason needs to 
be prevented.  Using the black listing feature requested in 
http://bugs.debian.org/309441 migh be one way to go.
