Bug Description
Hello, Fabien,
first of all, thank you very much for nautilus-terminal, it's very usefull tool.
It seems to me, I've found a small bug.
I use Ubuntu 12.04 precise with "Gnome classic, no effects" desktop. Sometimes I use "sudo nautilus &" or "sudo grun nautilus" to make some root operations. I was surprised when I've do it after nautilus-terminal installation. Terminal window was opened inside nautilus (and it's Ok) and inside desktop (and it's not Ok). See attachment picture, please (black window on top of screen). It's really nautilus-terminal window inside desktop, because I can hide/show it by F4 (when desktop window is active). It was not a big problem, but was quit unexpected, of course. I hope my bug report will help you to make you product a little better.
Good luck!
with best regards, Alexey Kuryakin, Russia.

Hello,
The problem appear because the desktop is a folder like any other. Usually, Nautilus Terminal skips the desktop, but when you run Nautilus as root, you have not the same environment and Nautilus Terminal is not able to determine that it is your desktop.
