Public bug reported:

Even though I understand that Ubuntu early on decided to move away from
screensavers and to just have a black screen, not all users will like
this. So I think that it would be good if there was at least the
optional ability in the gnome-control-center to have a screensaver. This
could possible be achieved by having gnome-screensaver installed by
default and then including some settings for it in the gnome-control-
center (as it does not have its own settings GUI, not does it integrate
with the gnome-control-center to place any settings associated with it
there).
