I wanted this behavior as well, so I wrote a simple C program to do it
for me. It is NOT flexible at all, highly specific to my setup (2
monitors using Xinerama), and is my first shot at X programming.. but I
did look at gnome-control-center's background stuff to write it, and
stole two functions from it as well. I used gdk-pixbuf to manipulate the
images. I thought about trying to hack up gnome-control-center's
Background panel to include this stuff but alas I didn't have time.
