 Not sure if this was already discussed and considered. Thought to report
 it anyways as the current behavior doesn't seem ideal to me.

 Twenty Twenty declares support for custom background.

 However, it handles only custom colors and doesn't provide a UI in the
 Customizer to handle background images.

 This leads to an inconsistency in the WordPress admin UI: in the admin
 menu, a "Background" link is displayed:

 Clicking this link opens the Customizer but it doesn't do anything else.
 The customizer opens and displays its main panel in the sidebar.

 Instead, the expected behavior is that it opens the Customizer ''and
 then'' it switches the left panel to the "Background" one. You can check
 what the expected behavior is by using another bundled theme that supports
 a background image, e.g. Twenty Sixteen:
 - click on the "Background" link in the admin menu
 - the Customizer opens
 - after a brief delay, the "Background" panel appears sliding in from the
 right

 Instead, with Twenty Twenty active, the Background link doesn't do what
 users would expect. It just opens the Customizer and... well where's the
 background setting?

 Moreover:
 it's still possible to access the legacy background page at `wp-
 admin/themes.php?page=custom-background` if users know the URL or if they
 bookmarked it. In this page I can set a background ''image'' for Twenty
 Twenty :)

 After that, the Customizer displays the background image:

 But then again, the Customizer doesn't provide any UI to manage the
 background image.
