Canonical is still shipping 0011-add-background-file-support.patch,
which adds a background-file property to ActUser. Probably they feel no

Bug description:
  Background of the Unity Greeter should reflect the background chosen
  by the user that is currently selected.

  e.g. the background the user has selected on their desktop should be
  displayed in the greeter.  See the attached animation
  login_screen_v02_WP.mov to understand exactly how the backgrounds
  should crossfade.
