The only papercut-size fix I can see would be to remove the "Recommends"
on xscreensaver-{data,gl} and rss-glx from gnome-screensaver and thus
only install the native gnome-screensaver modes on new installations.
This will leave the "cosmos" and "personal image folder" slideshows,
which are pretty (cosmos at least) and resource-friendly.

Any solution involving selections of the existing screensavers (and
leaving the possibility for those interested to enable others) would be
non-trivial. Of course that should not stop anyone from coming up with a
technical solution and a patch.
