Will there be a random screensaver mode? I quite liked that feature of
the current xscreensaver.

Also could you drop me a mail at mh codeweavers com, a few weeks ago I was
experimenting with Wine/xscreensaver integration but hit some problems. I
got it mostly working but it wasn't releasable. Are you interested in
working on this so people can use Windows screensavers? 

I think that'd be a cool feature to have, if only because nice
screensavers are often given away on cereal packets, sold in tourist
traps etc. Actually I have one with pics of the Minnesota wildlife parks
I picked up at the last Wineconf so I'd quite like to have that mixed in
with some of the cooler JWZ hacks (GLMatrix!! ;)
