Allow adjusting background size and margins for lower thirds / alternate livestream displays

For our live stream, we display the sermon and announcements in the lower left corner. It would be nice if the background size could be changed (per virtual screen) so we don't have to copy the background image into a foreground image for every slide type with every sermon.
This would actually probably work out more like adding a base layer for transparency or green screen, and then making slides from logos and powerpoint imports apply to a foreground image by default. Basically, I believe the background should not be THE background, but a manipulable background applied over a base.
Songshowplus works this way using layers, except the whole slide is copied instead of allowing different text layouts per display, while using the same background.
It would make setting up the service so much easier if it would automatically copy the background over to the livestream in a different shape and size.
It may be easier to add an option for the foreground image to automatically fill with the relevant background, rather than changing the way the software is built.
