Bug Description

Dear Developers,

I using Oneiric with GNOME3 fallback session.
If I press CTRL+F10 my desktop, I unable to create desktop icon or new launcher, because the Create launcher or create new launcher menu items is missing.
Reproducation steps:
1. Activate the desktop.
2. Press CTRL+F10 keystroke.
3. Look the awailable menu items. You not will be find the create new launcher or create launcher menu items.

Possible fix this bug in Precise?
If I known right, GNOME developers upstream level drop out this possibility, because in GNOME Shell not have desktop, but this task is very need with some situations if the Nautilus handle the desktop.
I will be looking in Unity this problem.

Attila

If I launch manual gnome-desktop-item-edit application for example in Terminal, possible create any icon with the desktop.
I used following command:
gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new ~/Desktop
Because I using fallback session, this application is already installed.
I read this with following article:

https://launchpad.net/unity-launcher-editor though

Sebastien, unity-launcher-editor is possible using if I using GNOME3
fallback session?
Now, I need using this mode because more accessible now the fallback
session unfortunately.
