What about also including a few of the non-supplimental wallpapers from
previous releases? I personally really like F24 and F21, and the F17
fireworks seem almost iconic. Plus, FC5 (although the 3d-button look on
the logo seems dated.)

IMHO, these wallpapers are tied to the branding of each individual release, so
I would be worried about including these as the standard wallpapers on a default
install. The supplemental wallpapers don't really have the same connection to
an individual release, and since we have a large back catalog of approved, properly
licenced images, this seemed like a good place to base our search on.

One thing to investigate here, however, is should we look into better ways of exposing
the wallpapers packaged in Fedora to the user? Currently, these wallpapers are not shown
in Software, and the only way to get them is to know the correct package name / fedora release
name to install, and use DNF. They aren't really "software", so not sure if they fit in the Software
app, although we do have Fonts in there, but the experience provided there for searching
for fonts can feel a bit clunky at times too.

cheers,
