Making a copy of the image is a lot cheaper than adding a hack to
Nautilus which it runs when an image gets deleted ;)
I'm confirming this one, if nobody minds. Even I (and I consider myself
reasonably knowledgeable) feel pretty overwhelmed when it comes to adding
wallpapers, because I know that if I move or rename the image I will lose my
beautiful catalogue of wallpapers! Thus, I usually make a copy into a special
folder anyway. It is tremendously annoying (and kind of saddening) when
wallpapers just disappear, since I spend lots of time collecting them and
setting the appropriate styles. Further, it is currently impossible to set a
remote image as a wallpaper since there is no convention in place for where the
image should be placed.
People who aren't aware of the details involved are bound to encounter issues
at some point, as described here.
A very simple fix could resolve the issue.
