I dropped the explorer-idea and patched only winex11.drv:

After XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW was detected on DllMain/PROCESS_ATTACH,
I validated lpszClassName from CREATESTRUCTA (in X11DRV_CreateWindow),
set a new flag in x11drv_win_data and modified create_whole_window /
destroy_whole_window.

That was ok for fullscreen, but it need more work (and a wrapper) for
the Preview-Case (wine screensavername.scr /p hWnd)
With /s for the preview in xscrennsaver-demo, the graphic is to
large.

Yep, I've done this before but it was an evil, awful hack and I don't have
the patch anymore (probably just as well) :)

The way I did it was just to redirect the first created window, but again,
it was hacky. Hopefully you can find a better way.

 Hi.
 
 While waiting for the commit of my localspl-Patches, 
 i want to picked up an fun project:
 
 Has anyone an Idea, how to modify user32.dll and
 winex11.drv to open a Window, when I already have the
 X11 Window-ID (example: XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW=0x280020)? 
 
 My Idea is to include the wrapper code in explorer.exe
 and use similar code as already present for /desktop.
 
 The Window width and height is not known on startup
 and does not match a well-known Desktop Size.
 I think, I need to add an Export to winex11.drv to fetch
 the size and reuse X11DRV_create_desktop() or add an Export
 to someting similar as X11DRV_create_desktop().
 
 
 The client registers a Window Class with a known name
 (WindowsScreenSaverClass) and then CreateWindowEx must be 
 redirected to the already created X11-Window.
 
 A lightwight solution might be to implement minimal features
 from scrsave.lib (RegisterClass) in explorer.exe
 and then call ScreenSaverProc directly.
 
 
 Any Ideas?
