Since user home directories ought to be completely private, a login
screen oughtn't to be able to read files within them.  And since
creating a new user is a root/admin activity, it ought to be possible
to specify a user picture at the same time, and store it somewhere
outside of the user's homespace.  Changing it later on would be a
problem, though (requiring admin permissions, again - though if you
think of it, it still needs to be, you wouldn't want users in a work
environment putting up genitalia pictures for everyone to see).
