Sounds like a bug for me. As we are anyway need a better way of getting the wallpaper and it's properties, we can also fix that. The only thing is that i'm not sure if it's still valid. I think arch doesn't ship a patched accountservice/gnome-settings-daemon and i remember i have a login-wallpaper on my arch-installation. Feel free to file a bug and link to this mail in the archive :)
