I wrote a screen saver to do this.

Hey, that actually works rather nice, but, it isn't really a screensaver perse is it? It just goes to the log-in screen. What would be nice is if it went to the log in screen, but then invoked a real screensaver or dimmed the screen or something. Then it would be more useful. But nice work so far.

AFAIK, what you suggest isn't possible. Once the program has been invoked to switch to the login screen, the system has complete control. I could invoke another saver, but it would be hidden.
