'Regression' does not really apply. gnome-software is not aiming to be a
1-1 replacement for gpk-application. Wrt to backgrounds, I would say
that installing them in packages is really suboptimal, and we should
look for ways to make backgrounds from online sources show up in the
background panel.

Get the cinnamon guys to fork the nautilus appdata ? I'm sure it will
