I think it would be nice to be able to specify a URL (not only a
filename or solid color) by which the wallpaper is updated every 
once in a while by the background-properties applet.

I don't know the proper way to implement it though... Perhaps one
should try to make one of the URL handlers render the wallpaper,
or maybe GtkHTML would be better?
