This caught me on upgrading from oneiric to precise, so it is still a problem. I would suggest that the remove script (or a separate tool?) searches known methods for setting the wall paper (unity-2d, unity-3d, gnome2, gnome3, xfce, etc) for all users and deletes what is left. Otherwise every wallpaper-setting tool would need to be modified.

My mother would be very disappointed to see her beautiful wallpaper disappear after an upgrade. Is there any way to save the one that was defaulted during an upgrade ? Or even add a link "Previous ubuntu wallpapers" in the Appearance window ?
