Well, all themes use -- explicitly -- the program 'bsetroot' (or bsetbg)
to set the background.  While we could patch the themes that are part of
the package, it would be cumbersome for the users to have to patch every
additional theme they may wish to install.

Since these tools are useful without either of the window managers, I
imported them as a separate package.
