Correct on seamlessness being the goal.  The only thing that has to work
for 12.04 is that the greeter should layout the wallpaper using the same
transformation as the GNOME/Unity default.  Anything else is a bonus,
and worth bumping to a later release.  I don't think we want to support
transitioning wallpapers at all, if someone has this configured we
should just show the first one (transitioning would be confusing and
look like the selected user was changing).  Treat a non image based
wallpaper as unset and show the system default for now.

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.
