Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

Setting background color to black via gdmsetup

grep -R -i "000000" /etc/gdm/
/etc/gdm/gdm.conf:BackgroundColor=#000000
/etc/gdm/gdm.conf:GraphicalThemedColor=#000000

One would expect this to take effect after gmd has loaded and before the 
wallpaper is loaded.
Still /etc/gdm/PreSession/default states
# Default value
        if [ "x$BACKCOLOR" = "x" ]; then
                BACKCOLOR="#76848F"
        fi
 If I manually change it to black (#000000) it works as wanted.


As for now it creates visual glitch.

Though this might be dublicate of bug #132833 
figured it might be more useful to report this separately.
