Subject: wallpaper: one monitor to preview, a line per transition

Selecting was unclear with a tile doing both jobs. A mock monitor now
plays whatever line is clicked, and a click changes nothing else; the
choice is an Active mark per line, and Random's pool a Switch beside it.
Each line shows a frame caught halfway through its transition.

MockScreen takes children, drawn on its panel.
