The most visible difference I saw between mate-screensaver and ukui-
screensaver is the Unlock screen. It might be possible for this to be
converted into a patch that might even be accepted into MATE.

For instance, this is how Unity tweaks gnome-screensaver:
https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-screensaver/ubuntu/view/head:/debian/patches/18_unity_dialog_layout.patch

UKUI would need to added to mate-screensaver's OnlyShowIn=MATE; or drop
that line entirely.

mate-session-manager would need to have its gsettings schema split out
(maybe to mate-session-manager-common) so that UKUI could use it without
needing to have MATE as a login option.

Kylin could ship their custom Floating UKUI screensaver in a separate
package.

Are there any other important changes I missed?

Anyway, there might not be time in the zesty cycle to do all that so I'm
uploading ukui-screensaver to the zesty queue now.
