I understand your concerns.  However, the point does remain that there is a
piece of software that does this quite well: it's call PCAnywhere.  I have
used PCAnywhere a bit, and I know that as soon as a user connect, it gets
rid of the background.  I don't know how it handles crashes, disconnects,
etc, but my point is, it can be done, and gracefully.

]What happens when the shadowed PC crashes in the middle of a VNC
]session?

]What will happen when you connect to a machine with no user logged in,
]and you sign in as a user with wallpaper?

]As a systems admin, I picture fielding repeated calls of "My wallpaper
]keeps changing for no reason!" from aggravated users.
