when the default background image is covered by windows, what other indication 
is there then that the computer is running Ubuntu at all? 

the Ubuntu logo should be present on the desktop screen at all times - the theme
is not enough.

Ubuntu already has strong 'brand loyalty', a loyalty people are happy to
convey with the presence of the logo.

i would say that it should remain there by default, but those few that
take offence should have option to replace/remove it.
