Actually, xscreensaver has a configure option to do just this, but it's
not turned on in the Fedora RPMs. From 4.21:
* The unlock dialog can be made to have a ``New Login'' button that will
run gdmflexiserver. Experimental!

Considering "New Login" isn't all that stable, I can understand why it's
turned off.

Now if someone with a sense of graphic design volunteered a new design
for the unlocking screen.
