The background _was_ part of the "desktop" configuration in the control 
center at one point in time and that confused users who wanted to change 
their background because they couldn't find it there. I don't think that the 
current solution is very bad, since I expect users to change the background 
much more often than making changes to other aspects of the desktop.

Cheers,
