MacOS – How to completely disable desktop background change

desktopmacos

I need to block the possibility for a single user to change the desktop background, or at least to make it possible only by inserting his password on OS X Lion / Mountain Lion.

I want to lock every possibility, from iPhoto to Safariā€¦

One possible solution would be to set the permissions on ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist to be read-only for the user.
