Change the Screen Saver "Start After" options in Mountain Lion In Mountain Lion, I'd like to remove some options in the screen saver timing. I'd like to remove the "Never" option and some of the longer options for all accounts on the system. Essentially I'd like to require a screensaver, any screensaver. 

Is there a way that this can be accomplished?
If you're using Open Directory and OS X Server, you can push manifests to the client machines using Workgroup Manager (MCX). This, of course, depends on what version of OS X Server you are using. My familiarity is with Lion Server, but documentation exists for MCX and Directory Services in other OS X Server versions.

While I am not sure you can eliminate the options for screensaver timing, you can force the client machine into a specific value using the plist and MCX.

This link is for Leopard, but it is relevant to how OS X Server and MCX handle screensaver settings.
