 * When removing the background image, a default one (grey, 130×130 px) is set instead
   of just the custom background color.

 * Thanks, that worked; but I wonder why you don’t simply give the body tag a class“
   custom-background” dynamically and set transparent background in css only for
   body.custom-background… 😉

 * It is in CSS only 🙂 You’re doing this from WP Background correct, that’s why,
   it’s easily overridden in Child Theme, or even in Custom CSS from Theme Options.
   The choice is yours.
