Background image #18

Some terminal emulators have a background image feature. This is firmly in
the realms of visual frippery though and unlike transparency it needs more
than a couple of function calls.

I would actually prefer a "desktop" background feature. It behaves like 
transparency but shows just the desktop background instead of the desktop and 
all of the windows above it.

This is the effect that occurs with gnome-terminal when transparency is used 
and there is no desktop acceleration. I don't know why it's isn't more popular.

To clarify, this isn't just a background image of the desktop. If you drag the 
window around, the desktop background beneath it would match up.
