Comment (by cdog):

 Hey there! Here's a new approach based on what was discussed so far:
 [attachment:22058-customize-background.png].

 I've merged my previous proposals ([attachment:22058-background.png] and
 [attachment:22058-presets.png]) to a single unified interface, keeping
 both built-in presets and configurable options.

 The presets would be:

 * Fill Screen
 * Fit to Screen
 * Stretch to Screen
 * Center
 * Repeat
 * Custom

 They don't require a preview image anymore as background options are now
 available inside the customizer only (the wording is self-explanatory and
 you also get a live preview for your choices). I've moved them to a
 dropdown menu.

 Selecting a preset would change the options below based on your selection.
 Tweaking the options would select the Custom preset automatically.

 The background position component may seem a bit too big. I've enlarged
 the buttons to make them easier to tap on touch devices as they don't have
 any spacing between them.

 This could be achieved with the existing dashicons without creating any
 new assets. Next, I'll provide a working patch for a potential user test.
 Any feedback is much appreciated.
