Or even better, let the user decide!

For those interested.
Created the issues 21686, 21693, 21695, 21696.
And more to come...


Thanks for those.  I don't much time right to devote, but managed to knock one 
off.And I learn't something new. I'd not known there was a setting for screen 
background.
The other ones seem related to a problem dealing with user home folders 
containing non-ascii characters.Currently this seems only to affect a small 
number of people, but is a show stopper for them,and the numbers will grow with 
our hoped for growing popularity.
As a work around, in the PharoLauncher settings can you set the directories 
like C:\PharoLauncher\imagesC:\PharoLaucnher\vmsand report if that helps.  
Note, I bumped into an issue changing that setting myself recently where it 
tries to migrate the existing images from the old to the new folder, causing a 
catch-22 when your tryingto do that to work around other problems.  To work 
around that, I had to scroll down the debug stack to find where the migration 
was iterating through the image folders,and short circuit that with "Return 
entered value" from the context menu.  Any valuewill do when the return value 
is not used. good luck.
@PharoLauncher maintainers, can the change in this setting be made to succeed 
even if the migration fails.(I need to run right now)
cheers -ben
