One of the advantages of using many different operating systems is to getting to know some 
nifty tricks for certain features.
BeOS had a move (not scale) wallpaper feature and it was solved very well:
In the fake monitor thumbnail (Plasma had this until 4.4 or 4.5) one could simply drag and 
drop the image to move its position.
I don't know how many people used that feature (I didn't) but how it was implemented was 
unobtrusive.
