Is there a reliable way to _get_ the current desktop picture?

The 'random' settings don't affect the static desktop image. All it does is tell Dock.app to draw a new image layer on top the static desktop picture. This is why, after setting a desktop image with applescript, you won't see the image until you uncheck the 'Chang picture' option in system preferences. It would be interesting to learn how exactly System Preferences communicates with Dock.app, though.
