Bug Description

The new gnome-screensaver doesn't have a preview button.
The preview button can be useful when selecting a OpenGL screen saver to see if the rendering in full screen will be
done at a reasonable frame rate.

I think it's this upstream bug which was closed WONTFIX:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316655

"no ability to full screen preview individual screensavers"

maybe you should comment on the upstream bug if you want to have it resolved.
