--- Comment #2 from matthias at bodenbinder.de ---
Blacklisting just means that xfce is not starting it automatically per default
via dbus. Why is it doing that anyways? Is it starting all other possible
screensavers per default as well?

And why is it then not honoring the OnlyShowIn=CINNAMON setting or any other
setting in the cinnamon-screensaver.desktop file for that matter?

Even if the cinnamon-screensaver is blacklisted in that regard it can still be
executed by the user with a start script. The users who want to use is
explicitly will not have an issue.

And, by the way, the term "blacklisted" was taken from the reply of the
cinnamon developer who said:

"Please file the issue against XFCE as they will need to add a blacklist to
prevent is starting in their session.
Cinnamon had to do the same to prevent gnome-screensaver from starting in
cinnamon session."
