This is only applicable when the wallpaper is located inside an encrypted home directory. However, it seems to work fine with the unity(7)-greeter.

Humm, this doesn't seem to actually work in unity7 either.. Perhaps I was just looking at the lock screen? I think this would end up being a feature request if it is something we want to implement, but its not really a bug at this time.
