Sorry, this is certainly too much in details, but what is that

supposed to be?

I mean, either there's a guest account on the machine or there's not.
If you intend to sell a DM which runtime injects accounts or so, you just  
lost a customer ;-P

I read that in the linked description ("had to edit xml as root") -  
leaving alone that one could theoretically use a 660 symlink to a  
wallpaper:
How deep does that "user" control go?
Is it intended to grant users to alter the greeter appearance w/o any  
credentials like polkit etc. in the middle?

I'd preferably not see any user even alter the wallpaper w/o appropriate  
privileges - let alone any QML logics.
(whether a permitted user can ultimately click click edit the appearance  
 from a GUI, i don't care ;-)
