Description

This is a nice little utility. However, I can't fully use it because I like to use tiled graphics for my desktop picture. (Or whatever the correct name for it is---it's what System Preferences.app presents as "Tile").

Is there a way to add tile to the list of [scale] choices?

Research direction
Investigate the codebase to understand how the existing scale modes are implemented, likely in the main Swift file. Identify where the mode options are defined and add 'tile' as an additional mode. Test with various image sizes.
