We had a chat with some distro maintainers, there was a mixed set of results.

Sorry

fwiw Plasma 5.1 also had the same wallpaper as 5.0 ;)
Indeed SUSE will probably not be very amused when their openQA tests
start failing in a patch release because the default wallpaper changed.

It's a behavioural change in a patch release.

It's a behavioural change in a patch release. Patch releases should be

I'm not convinced it has a net benefit.
People who update on the day will be already surprised. People who
update later will have forgotten all about the background of a
webpage/tweets they already saw.
By the time 6.1.1 it'll be forgotten we'll restart a discussion that

Hi,
This time, finding a wallpaper has been tougher than usual, including a lot
