Please file this as a wishlist bug. It would be relatively simple, because
we could use the same gamma fading method that xscreensaver uses - we can
happily dim everything on the screen before it fades in. We couldn't fade
out using this method, but that's okay. We can do crazy COMPOSITE stuff for
that later on.

Definitely not breezy material. :-)
