I like very much the "follow the sun" in the globe wallpaper; from time to time
I take a peek and enjoy the new sites showing.

Now, the mandelbrot wallpaper looks fantastic once you zoom into some frontier
point. And, in the end, the Mandelbrot set is an infinite world to explore.
Thus, I'd like to see an addition in which it automatically keeps visiting new
places as time goes by. Not jumping randomly, but akin to "follow the sun",
changing slightly the actual view. I can think of two approaches that could
even be combined:

a) Increase the zoom automatically.
b) Move the point of view, following the frontier.

I admit I see a) to be "easy" while I don't have much idea if b) is easy or not
to implement. Filing this as a wish.
