Thank you for your bug report, the behaviour is not new, "wallpapers" include the system wallpapers not the user images, or is your issue bug #968268?

In precise when I press '+' in 'Wallpapers' image is added to system wallpapers. This seems to be logical.

weird, the code didn't change between precise and quantal, it changed between oneiric and precise though, see the other bug which was pointed in my first comment

I saw that bug. It is different.
I also noticed weird behavior.
When I press '+' in 'wallpapers' I get 'select file' dialog. I select a file and an icon of a wallpaper is added to 'Pictures folder', I can add again, then another icin is added, etc. And I can't remove duplicate icons. This looks like the other bug you mentioned.
But in precise this works logical and perfect. When you press '+' or '-' you have expected behavior.
