It would be super to have the ability to set more than one location the
Desktop module looks in for wallpaper images.  Pulling them up
individually by adding them one at a time is extremely tedious, and is
contrary to making the system work simply, IMHO.

One should be able to add multiple directories to add to the display of
images, and then sort all images by any criteria, such as directory,
name, resolution, etc..

These features should be trivial to add to the Desktop module, IMHO.

Thank you.

In 4.12 xfdesktop will allow you to select the folder to pull images
from rather than having to add them to lists. You can see the basic
concept from the on-line documentation:
http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/4.11/usage

Doing multiple directories would be more complicated from the new UI
layout, but you can always make a directory with symlinks to the images
from other folders that you want.

Will that be sufficient for your needs?

I am not quite sure about the final product usage, but that sounds very
good.  I also like the idea of symlinks, but that should be an automated
process of Xfce rather than user created.

Ideally, the software could be asked to scan for images and allow the
user to check a box next to a thumbnail to add that one to the catalog.
