Support for Dakboard or other URL as screensaver

Right now, Imgur and clock are supported as screensaver options. It would be awesome to have support for Dakboard URLs, or any URLs as screensaver, really.

https://dakboard.com

I like this idea but there are some limitations to be aware of. The Android WebView component used to display web pages does not support all web pages. There is also some issues displaying private certificates, and playing video and sound. Remember also, the purpose of a screensaver is to save screens, so if you constantly display one web page as a screensaver without that page changing, it would burn your screen. Other than those limitations, users could load web pages that have animations or other features.
