I've made a few minor changes, and it's actually getting used now.
Tobias@ did fix a bug in xwallpaper 1.6.1 that makes it really useful
and I'm now starting churning out actual aspect-ratio files for
openbsd-backgrounds (see the version in github, to be committed once
xwallpaper 1.6.1 hits the ports tree)

So I'd like to import this.

For once, not asking for yet another old qt3 application, this is brand
new qt5 :) and will take about 5mn to compile.
