What about implementing a screensaver plasma wallpaper backend? This would show screensavers as plasma wallpapers. Then you could go with the second option and get screensaver support for free in a leck hackish way. I know there have been requests from at least several people for a screensaver wallpaper backend for plasma since before it was even released, so this would solve the problem while benefiting plasma as a whole. -Todd _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
