[Bug 31511] Re: Settings lost during an upgrade

[Simon Law]

That is exactly the right thing to do!

Here's some pseudocode:
1. Check if /apps/gnome-screensaver has entries
2. If yes, carry on.
3. If no, look for .xscreensaver.  If you find that, import as many entries as you can into /apps/gnome-screensaver.

That's a total win for everybody.
