You can put your settings into lightdm/ subfolders, and split
configuration in several files.

For the display manager, I use /usr/local/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/
and the greeter /usr/local/etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf.d/

About wallpaper, if you use your own, the greeter is able
to reuse your wallpaper, without to modify something in configuration
file. It uses the accountsservice dbus service.
