In KMahjongg users can configure backgrounds and tilesets
separately, 
and the same is (or was?) possible in other apps for the
KDE3 series, 
like Kpat.

But you have a point, it might be better to consider the
background an 
integrated part of the theme, at least for some
applications. So the 
question turns into theme selection and switching, which is
easier to 
plan. For KMines I will add additional elements, then:

-Background
-Playfield delimiters - frame (corners, top, left, right,
bottom)
-Score and Timer areas
-Smiley button states

The metadata theme file (.desktop) would contain localizable
data and 
metrics for the elements, much like the current ones used
for KMahjongg 
tilesets,

Theme authors will then be more or less free to implement
these elements 
with transparency or not, or simply not include some
elements if they do 
not fit their overall goal. With something like this I guess
you would 
be able to implement a design based on the mockup you
posted, right?

Mauricio
