I am also not totally happy with shipping a desktop file in /etc/xdg,
I would have preferred if there was a /usr/share/xdg to put it in, so
a system administrator could override it easily in /etc/xdg if he
installs several screensavers or just wants to hide it. Note that also

Yitz,
Both KDE and GNOME ship by default their own screensaver daemons
(kscreensaver and gnome-screensaver). I am most familiar with
gnome-screensaver so I will use it as the example, but I think
kscreensaver does the same. The gnome-screensaver package ships its
own desktop file which is active by

xscreensaver and KDE's own screen sa
