i'm pretty sure i suggested installing cons.saver into ${libexec} a 
long time ago. that would solve the problem effectively by removing 
the program from the user's view.

I'm afraid your description it too confusing for users. Users who 
read that manual page will have a wrong impression that they have 
to run cons.saver manually by pressing Ctrl-O, and also that they 
will need to perform some administrative tasks for security.

Minor patch to make it install properly in devel. Must also...

gunzip doc/cons.saver.8.gz
mv doc/cons.saver.8{,.in}

(file #15365)

Seems good. However it should be noted that cons.saver work on 
FreeBSD too. Would you mind changing the manpage to reflect that 
fact ?
