+ * This extension does basically the same thing that the XIDLE extension does,
+ * but there are two things wrong with it: first, because of the way the
+ * extension was designed, the `fade' option to XScreenSaver will be uglier:
+ * just before the screen fades out, there will be an unattractive flicker to
+ * black, because this extension blanks the screen *before* telling us that it
+ * is time to do so. Second, this extension is known to be buggy; on the
+ * systems I use, it works, but some people have reported X server crashes as
+ * a result of using it. XScreenSaver uses this extension rather
+ * conservatively, because when I tried to use any of its more complicated
+ * features, I could get it to crash the server at the drop of a hat.
+ *
+ * I wish someone would port the XIDLE extension to R6. Or I wish someone
+ * would make the MIT-SCREEN-SAVER extension not be such a piece of junk.
+ *
+ * Note that the SGI X server also has an extension called SCREEN_SAVER.
+ * That is a completely different extension, and XScreenSaver contains no
+ * support for it (though it probably wouldn't be hard.)
