How often in a presentation is a single background used for all slides? Saying
yes in the dialog simply sets the image as the background of the master slide
rather than setting it as the background of the current slide.

So if i made a presentation with 4 slides and each slide had a different
background image, i'm having to click 'No' four times for what benefit.

This dialog also appears when exiting the slide properties dialog when a new
background is set, and even there its bad UX. Users should learn about master
slides to get this functionality and not constantly have to see such dialogs
while in normal view.
