In my particular situation the settings work as expected. Probably because screen saver A has no custom settings. The issue is with the actual screen saver.

Am I correct then that if any single developer wants to deploy more than one screen saver, to ensure things will work right, they should use a different devid for each and every one? That's going to be.... awkward.
