If use my own user can browse everyones files!  (Ugh! Shouldn't that be
impossible by default of security reasons?)

If I browse with a new user, I can read some of my own files, others are
locked. But all pictures in my wallpapers filder could be read.
/home/username/Pictures/1920x1080 Benq/*.jpg

I can not say why some files are avilable and others are not. I have not
changed any permissions on purpose what so ever. (Beliving it stayed
private as long I didn't put it in the 'public' folder.) I might be
files that have been changed since upgrade to trusty?

Just a thougt!
I have no idea how the greeters works. But would it not be possible and easy to 
keep copies of all active wallpapers somewhere else in the system, and then use 
them as the actual ones? (in /var?) Then anyone can use any picture, and they 
can always be read by other users and the system services? Then we don't need 
to bother about reading rights in oters users home folders.
