While we're at it, how about letting us die-hard interlisp fans have what we've
always wanted: an arbitrary background! Just treat the background as a border-
less window and let us put our own picture of Mt Fuji on it. Then it would be
obvious what was window and what was background, and shut up the people who
complain about the Amiga screen.

Also... make the icons smaller & cleaner: right now they look like something
by Hanna Barbera.
