Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
On Windows, the desktop context menu ("right-click on the desktop") has a Refresh item. Users in China in particular find this item reassuring and miss it on Ubuntu.
We should add a "Refresh" item to the desktop menu, which:
* updates the thumbnails of items on the desktop
* compacts memory, along the lines of "echo 1 > /proc/sys/
* plays a specific sound, I suggest a clearing bell sound like that at http://

A good job seems to be done at the moment of refreshing thumbnails automatically (when I change a text file for example and save it, it updates the text straight away). This sounds like a Wishlist item though.
