I think you may be right.. but not in the way you describe it.  Since
gnome-screensaver uses .desktop files to define items in the list...
the same mechanism that users can use to edit menu items on a per-user
basis could be reused as the UI to edit screensaver .desktop files to
change the arguments.  Now whether or not gnome upstream has a mature
way for user to edit things like menu items is a completely different
can of worms. But since gnome-screensaver is re-using the .desktop
file concept it should be the same sort of editting UI which is
exposed for menu editting, if menu editting is ever exposed.
