The way this really ought to work is that we should have Rawhide-specific wallpaper in
Rawhide that *never changes*. That wallpaper should never be used in a stable release and
should be very obviously pre-release wallpaper. The wallpaper for each stable release
should be added after branching. That makes things simpler; you don't have to keep
changing things in Rawhide for no good reason and then merging the changes down to the
branch for the release you actually need to change.
The criteria were specifically written a few years back to enable this plan: they are
written such that for Beta we only require that the wallpaper not be the same as any
previous stable release. This means a Beta could include the 'pre-release'
wallpaper and that would be OK. The version-specific wallpaper only needs to be done and
landed by *Final*, not by Beta. This was generally agreed to be a Good Idea at the time,
which is why we revised the criteria that way, but no-one followed through and adjusted
the packaging to match the plan...
