SUMMARY
When trying to change wallpaper settings using the newly added wallpaper kcm and the "Set for all screens" checkbox is enabled, changes are only applied to the screens of the current activity. I noticed that after trying to change the slideshow timer. To my surprise, the timers of the screens of my secondary activity were not updated. If this is an intended feature, then this is unnecessarily confusing.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have more than one activity set up
2. Go to the wallpaper kcm in the system settings
3. Enable the "Set for all screens" checkbox at the top and apply changes

OBSERVED RESULT
Only the screens of the current activity are affected

EXPECTED RESULT
It should affect all screens on all activities

I don't think so, the opposite would be true.

All of those Kcm settings are supposed to be only for this activity.
