Just remove them from the XML. The question is whether people should be shown the symlink in the control center or the actual wallpaper itself. I've done the latter and I don't plan to change it right now, but if someone else cares a lot then they should feel free to do it. With the current scheme, choosing to use the 'default' wallpaper would be expressed by the distribution setting the wallpaper setting to the symlink. Then users that haven't changed their wallpaper would indeed get the new one on release upgrades.

I would have assumed we'd learned that lesson from "warty-final-ubuntu.png", which is *still* our default wallpaper filename. - It encodes the image size, which makes it awkward when/if we ever update the file to a different size. Why didn't we just name it "ubuntu-grey.png" or something? Is it too late to do so? With a symlink involved for backwards compatibility. We could probably never drop the symlink, because we actually released this file into the wild... But at least we'd be trying.
