I agree that maintaining website scraping is difficult and that
constantly backporting changes to older releases isn't ideal. So, I am
looking forward to a new release where difficult to maintain sources are
dropped once and for all. Thanks for all the feedback everyone :)

I've gone ahead and accepted this SRU but given Peter's comment re "most

I'm not 100% sure this specific bug is worth patching. Various sources
have stayed temporarily broken before due to website changes, and most
users are kind of accustomed to this sort of breakage. This is actually
one of the reasons I want to drop any non-API sources from Variety -
they are a PITA
I agree and disagree with only patching out the UI elements: while it's
possible to prevent adding new Wallpapers.net sources by removing it
from the GUI, doing so doesn't remove broken sources that may already
exist in a user's config. New code may have to be introduced instead to

But why keeping a module which sole purpose is never invoked?

I've only skimmed the patch but it seems to me like it'd be possible to
keep WallpapersNetDownloader.py and still remove the listing for
wallpapers.net thereby reducing the regression potential. Is that true?

Stable update patches usually have to be minimal and only address

It makes sense to backport the latest trunk revision, not an
intermediate one. I think the wallpapers.net bug alone is a very minor
nuisance, but getting the Safe mode feature backported is quite worth it
- lots of people are using that one, and also providing feedback on
image safety.

In order to fix this, would it be worthwhile to backport
