Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-art

To reproduce:
  Run gnome-art
  From the "Art" menu, choose Backgrounds->GNOME
Observed:
  A lengthy download is automatically begun, and a progress dialogue is shown 
("Downloading background 1/1078").  There is no Cancel or Abort button on this 
dialogue, and there are no window-decorations either.
Expected:
  Should be a method of aborting the download.  Any progress-window should 
appear with usual window-decorations.

I don't know whether this is by design - the missing window-decorations
makes it look like something is wrong.  The application is effectively
"hung" when it is in this state, since there is no way to cancel the
download, which could take a long time (several minutes, even on my
broadband connection).

Another problem is: the download is begun even if I have successfully
downloaded the items previously.  I can't just run gnome-app and view
the thumbnails that are already there.  It insists on re-downloading
them every single time.  I guess this is a separate issue, but it
wouldn't be a problem if I could quickly cancel the download and view
the thumbnails already there.

I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 on AMD64, gnome-art 0.2-5
