If they were to implement different backgrounds for different times of day, the best thing they could do is just use the sunrise and sunset times from the Almanac.
Civil twilight would be even better, since it's still somewhat bright out shortly after sunset, and I recall the STAR team saying awhile back that  the icons are based on civil twilight.

I loved the one before the 05 relaunch. The sun background was great but only felt fitting for the satellite LF.
