Bug Description

Hi,

by default it seems that elementary desktop is just an useless frame to display a wallpaper - wallpapers are really nice by the way.

When working on a project, I like to have "under my eyes" the files and folders needed at the moment.

To do that, I open Nautilus and makes it handle the desktop via dconf-editor.

Is there an easier way ?
