Package: xscreensaver
Version: 5.04-1
Severity: wishlist

I'd like to keep my xscreensaver settings in Git, which I currently do
for many other dotfiles.  I want that configuration to contain a very
minimal set of settings, to just blank and lock:

timeout:        0:10:00
lock:           True
lockTimeout:    0:01:00
splash:         False
mode:           blank

However, if I ever run xscreensaver-demo, it writes out a new copy of
~/.xscreensaver.  This copy includes all the default settings as well,
and a timestamp at the top, both of which make versioning it more
difficult.  I'd like to have some way to make xscreensaver-demo only
write out settings I actually changed from the default, and not write
a timestamp.  That way, if I run xscreensaver-demo, and change one
thing, a diff will show that only that one thing changed.

Thanks,
Josh Triplett
