Currently with the "random screensaver" mode in kscreensaver, when the screensaver starts you get one screensaver and it sticks with that screensaver until you leave the screensaver mode. I think it would be nice if kscreensaver, when on "random screensaver" mode, gave you an option to randomly switch to a new screensaver after a period of time. The period of time would be set by the user, and could either be a fixed period of time or a range where the time to the next switch would be randomly selected from within that range. There could also be an option to display the time to the next switch in a corner of the screen.

add:
and don't use in night-time screensavers, that used many resours of CPU or/and GPU(openGL)!!!

PS: this is very unhappy wakeup in midnight from fans(on CPU/GPU), becouse CPU/GPU is very used
