Comment 37 for bug 844081

@Afzal, comment #36: Mark Shuttleworth is not the CEO of Canonical ;-)

And why whould we complicate our life? Simply don't pick an innapropiate wallpaper, go back to the roots, no need to add more settings...

I don't quite understand why some users are always complaining about features added or removed, because they can always change the defaults and, for example, install another greeter or display manager.

Sorry, but commenting in a closed bug report is not that helpful. Discuss this in Ayatana mailing list and don't spam bug subscribers. In any case, I consider this feature a nice touch, and it is just days old, let it be and maybe you'll discover that you like it ;-)
