Title:
  Cannot set image as desktop background from Shotwell

Status in Ubuntu MATE:
  Confirmed
Status in shotwell package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This problem affects Ubuntu Mate 19.10 and 20.04.

  A common action to use in the Shotwell photo organiser is to set a
  photo as the desktop wallpaper. However this function does not work on
  Ubuntu Mate due, I assume, to Shotwell configuring settings for the
  Gnome desktop rather than for Mate.

  Steps to reproduce:

  Launch Shotwell
  Import a photo
  Select the photo, then select the following menu option: File -> Set as Desktop Background
  From the pop-up dialogue, select 'Use for Desktop' and click 'OK'.

  Result:
  No change to the Mate desktop wallpaper.

  Desired result:
  The Mate desktop wallpaper should change to the selected image.

  Thanks
  Nick
