You can in shr as well (change the background image), but not the background
image of a specific application, I agree we need to support that, it's just
not possible with the current idle_screen design (UI) because you can't use
images correctly, they get distorted, if you can open a ticket and assign it
to me, and I promised I'll do it (hopefully sooner than later).
