What about implementing a screensaver plasma wallpaper backend?
This
this would require significant changes to Plasma::Wallpaper and a
lot of
changes to how the painting is handled there. i don't think this is
a
realistic option before frameworks 5 is released.
Okay, but hopefully this is a goal since it would solve all the
problems.
No it wouldn't and I don't want us seeing tying ourselve more to X in
Frameworks 5. The existing screensavers won't work with Wayland
anyway...
In the meantime, what about running a transparent version of the new
locker with a non-locked screensaver underneath it? I know this is a
bit hackish, but I really thing we would see a serious revolty if
screensaver support was removed. People really like their
screensavers.
Quite simple: security. The main reason of the change is to have the
locker secure. If we add translucency to it and see the screen saver
underneath we get to the problem again that the savers aren't secure.
