I think pcmanfm or xfe file managers are very good candidates for Elbuntu file/desktop manager. Pcmanfm has an option to enable showing files/application lauchers (.desktop files) from user's ~/Desktop folder. Also pcmanfm supports autodetection (through hal) and mounting of removable media (pmount package must be installed for this).
Btw, pcmanfm is very small in size (package takes less than 250kb !) and depends only on basic gtk2 and hal libraries !
Besides file manager it would be nice to have and removable media automounting daemon - I think *ivman* would be the best candidate, as AFAIK E17 doesn't have any software for automounting.
