Personally, I haven't been affected by this bug anymore.

(Also, I stopped having my HOME encrypted, and now I use full disk
encryption, which is a better solution anyhow)

Now, when you right click on an image and "Set as wallpaper", it'll get
copied to ~/Pictures/Wallpapers this folder is world readable, so if the
issue was with the folder, it's now solved. The file itself still
retains its permissions, but I think this is on purpose.

If a custom wallpaper is added with the + button inside the control
panel, the picture is not copied, so you'd need to workaround that
manually.

I think all of this might still be an issue if the HOME is encrypted.
