Comment 25 for bug 284975

So the fix was to remove the feature in its entirety?

I use the RC live-cd and I see something I like, am I to understand that another user using the product one week later (final) will not see such feature?

I understand setting panel backgrounds has been there since before intrepid, but not every user is an expert artwork designer. I think the images should still be provided somewhere easy to fetch, like an optional universe package. So when a user is searching for backgrounds in Synaptics, he may find it.
