Skinners should be able to do this already? You could take it a step further and have date weather and song information displayed full time during vis. look at MusicOSD.xml file in the skin of your choice. its in the 720p folder. This wouldn't work for standby mode however i would think a screen saver clock would be easy enough to write up.

Are xml overlays possible on screensavers?
Ideally an option to overlay a clock that occasionally moved over existing screensavers would make more sense than a whole new screensaver.
