I would rank MA1.1/2.0/2.6 slightly higher on meeting the criteria of a screen saver because they all had automatic light adjustment of both the foreground and background.

By adding automatic lights to the automatic camera panning of MA3, MA3.1 should qualify even more as a "screen saver" than the old versions did.

A "screen saver" to properly qualify as such, must change all the pixels on the screen frequently enough to prevent burn-in (even though such a thing is rare on all but Plasma and CRT displays). How does MA3.1 (what Beta 11g will possibly become) not qualify?
