Are there plans to develop a screensaver specifically for Unity?

Since Unity uses gnome-screensaver by default currently, seems like a reasonable area for a desktop to attract much user appreciation.

(My personal interest is in a nice Pictures folder type slideshow screensaver with more settings than currently offered in gnome-screensaver - ie folder specification, and duration/delay of slide.)

Thank you.
