You should really rename it. The gnome-screensaver product in Bugzilla
is closed, so that screensaver related bugs don't end up there even
though we (GNOME) don't use it anymore.

gnome-flashback-screensaver, if gnome-flashback folks want to use it,
would be fine. Otherwise, a completely different name would be better.

You can then rename pages like:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeScreensaver
in the Wiki.

See also:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735123

And you can see an example canned closure message, which we used after
triaging the bugs that might still affect GNOME:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648567
