I would like to provide some other info as well if that's okay, it's not
entirely relevant to this, but as a user when I go to apply a wallpaper I would
enjoy a prompt asking if I would like it applied to the lock screen and the
login screen as well. As it is now it applies only to the desktop and as a user
this might be confusing, the user must know to apply it to 2 other places as
well, and they also won't understand why they can't apply it to their login
screen (because of the intentional filter.)
