Did they fix the scaling of desktop wallpapers? I really loved the
"center maxpect" option 3.5 had, but 4.0/4.1 only have center, tiled,
and stretch-to-the-edges-of-the-screen-aspect-ratio-be-damned, and
that sucks. What's the point of a pretty desktop environment if you
ability to wallpaper it is crippled?

Ha! "Just like Windows"... too funny. It's also "just like Mac", "Just
like Gnome", "just like KDE 3.5", "just like Fluxbox with iDesk", etc.
It's not at all about whether or not you have desktop icons (I keep my
windows desktop as clean as possible, actually), it's about whether or
not you have the ability. Crippling KDE because the lead designer
doesn't like desktop icons is just brainless hubris. I'm glad he saw
the error of his ways.
