+1 for this. if the lock screen is QML, when we get a QML version with OpenGL shaders people can go crazy creating new screensavers in all their glory. for Plasma widgets: it would mean creating a Containment and loading the configuration in that Containment; which means: not much. the current Plasma widgets support has a bunch of complicated code for working with (or more accurately: around) the screensaver unlocker window dialog. with a QML locker that doesn't require such hacking about, the code should be a lot simpler and cleaner. i don't think we can just drop the widgets-on-locker functionality, however, as that's an actual real-world-useful feature (whereas screensavers are an anachronism) -- Aaron J.
