Are there at least some plans to implement screensavers into Wayland? Is there any way to override Wayland’s restrictions and set a screensaver up?

Until they fix being able to use screensavers -XScreenSaver at the very least- on Wayland, we’ll never have the “Year of Linux on the desktop".
My solution was to set up xscreensaver how I wanted it in X11 and then start it via CLI as a background app on system startup for wayland.
You can’t manage screensaver settings from wayland, but you can force it into working.
I’m on Kubuntu 24.04
Yes, screensavers are for sure among the top 300 features needed for this.
