1: when i used it, i found it to be really disorienting, but functionality is what i was going for.
it wouldn't be terribly hard to render a bug to indicate the machine is asleep.

2: is it really worth the effort to prevent an image from being drawn to the screen?

this has the potential to be a fantastic hack.....couple of other suggestions if i may:

1. is it possible to have a small symbol or mark rendered on the new page to show you are in sleep? maybe the bug from kaffine for example.

2. is there anyway to stop the original screensavers being drawn in the first place? otherwise maybe the best thing for me to do is replace my screensaver with a blank page?

thanks so much for this, great work
