Re: display -backdrop

It seems like -bordercolor may be a more intuitive way to specify the
color used by -backdrop since the backdrop is effectively a border.
The backdrop may be viewed as a border around the image.

Changing the value of foreground (using X11 resources) in order to
control -backdrop may negatively effect user-interface elements.

Comments?
