Hi, as the author of LDView, I've got two things to add.  First, since
LDView is not an actual screensaver, you would have no way of having it come
on automatically.  However, as Calvin pointed out, it will run full-screen.
In addition, it supports Alt-Tabbing out of fullscreen mode

Combine the fullscreen mode with a generic screen saver and you now have
what you're looking for.  A quick search for "generic screen saver" turns
up AnyServer and perhaps several others that will let you use any executable
as a screen saver.

The only tricky thing might be to get the model spinning.  Perhaps a spin
vector on the command line might be required.

Have fun,
