Say I want to email my Pi a picture, and have it set the latter as it's desktop background. Say that I also already have the script that makes it pull the mail from GMAIL and launch a python script. The missing piece is the actual changing of the background.

There's a catch though. With LXDE, setting the desktop wallpaper from the command line has been on the TODO list for at least 5 years. You'll have to check whether it works or not.
