 This is r30824.

 There are some details that are not yet perfect. :)

  # When I invoke the Background add-on on an image file, the selected
 image is shown in the preference panel for the "Default Folder".
 Personally, I think this function is more often used for setting a
 workspace's background, so it may be more useful to set "Current
 Workspace" here instead.

  # When changing from "Default folder" to "Current/All Workspaces", the
 image that invoked the Background panel is replaced with the current
 background image of the workspace. Keeping the invoking image is a better
 idea IMO.

  # The "Default Folder" shows "backgroundTexture.tga" as image file. Too
 nerdy IMO, and what's the difference to selecting "None"? I guess...
 "none"?

  # From an aesthetical POV, the "Preview" string above the monitor
 representation on the left should either have a few pixel distance to the
 monitor or, better IMO, forget the "Preview" sring altogether.

  # I don't have a working widescreen resolution under Haiku, so I can't
 test this: does the preview monitor change aspect according to the
 workspace's resolution? It should.

  # There's still ticket #1006, eliminating the Apply button.
