Feature request: bind different wallpaper for each desktop.

I would like to have this nice feature - bind different wallpaper for each virtual desktop. It should be not too hard to implement - as standard-compliant WM sends PROPERTY_NOTIFY events on the root window when it switches to another desktop and sets _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP property with appropriate key, PCManFM can use that information to redraw desktop background in accordance with settings. I am volunteer to implement this but I don't know where to start as I never programmed any X things.

I've implemented this feature and put patch into SF tracker. It works but a bit incomplete, hope someone will make it complete. :)
