AFAIK, there is one freedesktop specification for icons [1], but not for wallpapers, it would be nice to raise this subject on fd.o ml. I don’t know which package owns /usr/share/pixmaps/backgrounds/, but apparently it’s not desktop-common-data. I would rather not having to install gnome packages/kde packages for that.
