I really like the idea and would like to include something like this in
the new version of /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme. This would make the
background handling even more flexible and could simplify the code. 

Colin, what do you think of this? If you don't want to add the
dependency, we could still add the code and make it fail gracefully if
ImageMagick isn't installed.

Best regards
