Here's an example of wallpaper which requires "scale" mode:
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Ubuntu+Wilderness?content=79915
And "stretched" mode: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Attic/Animals

I don't know Python but I already implemented "zoom", "scaled" and
"stretched" modes in Plymouth script, so probably I'll be able to write
something working, but I think it would be easier for you to write it from
scratch than to fix my code. Anyway, I'll try if I get some spare time.
