Give Enlightenment a try.  Well, the 16.7.2 version.  It acutally, most
times, especially with kde, adds stuff to the menus, plus there is 
regenerate menu in the maintainence screen.  Though it's not as lightweight
as flux and not as friendly as Kde/Gnome.  If you haven't already tried,
you'll need in /etc/portage/package.keywords - 

x11-wm/enlightenment ~amd64
x11-themes/ethemes ~amd64
x11-themes/etheme-BrushedMetal-Tigert ~amd64
x11-themes/etheme-ShinyMetal ~amd64
x11-themes/etheme-Ganymede ~amd64
x11-themes/etheme-BlueSteel ~amd64
app-doc/edox-data ~amd64
>=media-libs/libpixman-0.1.1 ~x86
media-gfx/imlib2_tools ~x86

Just change the ~amd64 to ~x86 if needed.

In Enlightenment, the Xscreensaver still has to be manually
started, but it's available via the mouse under the - other -- settings menu.

Well, skyrocket is one of rss-glx screensavers.  There should also be a - 
rss-glx_install.pl
file as well.  And some other screensaver eye-candy - x11-misc/fireflies
