Slideshow capability #2

Hi, thank you for this amazing plugin!

I was thinking that it would be cool if there was slideshow capability. Select a folder or a list of files and plugin will automatically loop over wallpapers with specified interval, randomly or in a sequence.

It would be really great if you implement such idea, thanks!

Just leaving myself a note here for future me / for anyone who is curious why this is still open with no activity: I would love if I could reuse the image and slideshow plugins (and any other wallpaper plugins) wholesale, without having to reimplement them. Basically, given that the only things the parallax plugin does is make the "screen" larger and moves that screen around, it would be great if we could pop any wallpaper plugin into that "screen" and see it there. (As for whether that's technically feasible... it might require C++. But it would be a fun weekend!)
