Sysinternals BGInfo can supposedly set various 'logon' desktop backgrounds too. However, I've not had any luck with it though. Can PowerBGInfo do this?

At the moment it can't do that, but I saw some PowerShell code to set Logon Desktop Background. Would need to see if it works, if so there's no reason why this couldn't work.

Would love to see this get added! I'm thinking this may require elevation and a good way to elegantly ask for elevation. But in my case, I'd probably be running it with admin/system permissions anyway, so it's a moot point--at least for me.

BTW, I've not used it yet, but I'm assuming that the normal use case of modifying my own user backgrounds doesn't require elevation anyway?

No it doesn't. But the logon screen will.
