Attached is a tweaked version with wording fixes from dabbott and author
as me instead of team, as I understood to be more appropriate.

I will probably wait for further reviews for a couple hours and then
commit this and proceed with CCing arch teams for the stabilization
work.

"not handle the desktop." => "not handle the desktop's background image"

But even without this change

I thought it handled the icons on the desktop as well?

yeah, we cleared that on IRC and the e-mail was "ack either way", but
s/desktop/desktop icons might be more clear.

Anyhow, how to I get eselect news or news-tng to actually see these news
items out of a svn checkout when my PORTDIR is from CVS, not rsync?
strace'ing eselect news{,-tng} suggests they stat metadata/cache, but
doesn't even try to look for a metadata/news with my setup, so I can't
verify on my end everything is working right to proceed with this..
