Here's a (so-far-as-I-know) undocumented feature that made its way to me  
via Eric Larson at NeXT.

To make the login window bounce around the screen when idle, do the  
following as root:

dwrite loginwindow MoveWhenIdle YES

this does not interfere with screen dimming.  it is only available in 3.0.
