That's right, in order not to succumb to minor shifts of the walls during the "shrinkage" of the new building. Other material could not stand it, would go cracked or torn. Non-woven wallpaper is better to use on the walls, which are covered with minor defects, nothing will happen to them from this!
If you are still planning to repair, imagine how difficult the next time you have to otkovyrivat wallpaper from the walls, then with non-woven can not be afraid of this. It is enough to pry them with a spatula on the one hand, as they evenly move away from the wall.

If you apply paint from the inside, then the wallpaper will become the color you want, but with smooth hue transitions from more saturated to pastel, almost white.
