It still insists on stretching the images across the screens, unless the I size
them small enough to tile on one screen (1/2 width).  Making them larger has no
effect.  Again it only seem to be an issue with a list of desktop images, not
single images -- the style acts similar to auto for a single image (no matter
which style you select).
Not really a big deal though.
