  "Desktop" is a metaphor. "Desktop background" is the proper way to address such clients.

  > - Inconsistent terminology between the KCM name, comment, and title
  
  Let's fix these issues rather than changing well established vocabulary. I agree that there's inconsistency in used terms, but that's not the reason for renaming "desktop effects" to something else.
