Even if I misunderstood the comment (oops), shouldn't we listen to our users? This patch wasn't based entirely on that single comment; rather, it was an example of a pattern I've noticed over time: that our users have difficulty finding how to change the wallpaper. That impression comes predominately from online interactions with actual users. It's hard for me to see how that would be invalid, in the aggregate.
If this isn't the right approach, I can accept that, but I believe that we need to do //something// for wallpaper configuration discoverability. I'm open to ideas.
