You are asking to have separate root window backgrounds in
Xinerama mode?  The Xinerama implementation doesn't allow that.
Basically, it advertises one root window, so when a client renders
to "the root window" it has to get duplicated on all the individual
screens.  I suppose you could fake different images by piecing together
smaller images along screen boundaries to make a single large "quilt"
to set as the background of the single large root window.

                        Mark.
