There is no way to make anything work sensibly for typical users without overwriting the whole file. The morass of places that one can set X resources, some of which haven't been commonly used for decades but that still work, makes this problem intractable. The X configuration mechanism is insane. xscreensaver-demo does what it can in an insane world.
