That's not the problem, and it wouldn't help. We know the name of the
wallpaper, but if the file is not accessible to the lightdm user it
still couldn't display it. Also, for e. g. an encrypted home directory
you can't read the gsettings either.

Title:
  Non-default wallpapers are not readable by Unity-Greeter

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I use a non-default wallpaper and it is a different folder than the
  default wallpapers. By default, the permissions on this are not
  readable by Unity-Greeter. With the new unity-greeter switching, I
  would expect that if I choose a wallpaper, it would get copied
  somewhere (~/.background ?) with the correct permissions for Unity-
  Greeter or some other mechanism that gets me the added Unity-Greeter
  functionality.
