 Something that can be a bit jarring about small diagonal line patterns
 (like those used as a background for featured images in Twenty Fourteen)
 is the way they'll appear to flash as you scroll down the page.

 On any site that makes good use of featured images,
 [http://irclogs.wordpress.org/chanlog.php?channel=wordpress-
 themes&day=2013-08-27&sort=asc#m64542 which the diagonal lines encourage],
 this won't be noticed often. But on any site that fails to make good use
 of featured images, the flashing-while-scrolling thing may prove
 distracting to its visitors.

 Maybe this is really trivial? - but the fix is easy. Just adding
 {{{background-attachment: fixed;}}} to the elements that use these
 backgrounds will achieve the same effect but with improved results: you
 still have featured images (or lack thereof) with the diagonal background
 appearing to scroll up the page, just no flashing.

 I've attached a patch (hope I do this right, it's my first).
