The important xml for it to appear in backgrounds-chooser is this one:
/usr/share/gnome-background-properties/desktop-backgrounds-laughlin.xml
the xml that is selected as default background is this:
/usr/share/backgrounds/laughlin/default/laughlin.xml

The gnome-desktop(3) requires is because it explicitly selects the
background (in gconf schema file) to be
/usr/share/backgrounds/laughlin/default/laughlin.xml

I'm really not sure how to handle here two different defaults...

How it's done in spins with different default wallpaper (I believe the
education or security have one)?
