Better to just remove all content. The only value in a screen saver in a 
corporation is to protect the monitor or keep sensitive content from the 
wrong eyes. You only need a black screen for that. Any content not only in 
screen savers but paint programs and other packages should be moved out of 
the distro lest it offend *anyone*. If we want Fedora to be successful in 
Iran, we need to make sure no naked ankles are in there, after all. ;)
