I'd like to understand the logic behind the use of these options. One of 
the effects of --no-desktop is to not make the "handle desktop" preference 
appear at all in the Preferences dialog, and it doesn't do anything is 
Nautilus is already running. In fact, calling "nautilus --no-desktop 
--no-default-window" will do absolutely nothing! If Nautilus is already 
running, it won't do anything. And if Nautilus is not running, it will 
start and then immediately quit.

I must be missing something.
