Public bug reported:
I saved an image to my desktop (it was the django pony wallpaper
(http://www.djangopony.com/)). I then set this as the desktop wallpaper
by right clicking on the desktop and selecting "Change Desktop
Wallpaper". A while later (today), I wanted to clean up my desktop and
right clicked on the image, and selected "Delete". A popup warned me
that this would remove the image. I clicked OK and the image
disappeared. However my desktop wallpaper changed immediatly to a dull
brown colour.
Obviously there is only one copy of the image stored when you set
something as the wallpaper, however I thought it was otherwise. I'd
suggest that when someone sets something as the wallpaper, it stores a
copy of that image somewhere else to prevent things like this from
happening.
