 Replying to [comment:5 humdinger]:

The first thing users do when they want to set another background is
 click "Other...".

 I'm not sure if that's a good process, it should be only for custom user
 backgrounds. I don't know if BeOS offered system-provided wallpapers, but
 if Haiku's gonna do that, the current implementation ought to be modified.
 To me, easiest option would be pre-populating the menu with system
 wallpapers, unless someone wants to rewrite the whole thing to a nice
 graphical collection view with previews like most modern operating systems
 do.
