Re: Nautilus desktop icons and metacity

Sorry, if this will sounds hostile. 

If you want to have icons that are always visible, use the panel. That
won't be covered.  It would be somewaht idiotic for a windowmanger to
start avoiding desktop icons. You can always bind a key to the "show
desktop" function and use that when you want to see the desktop icons.
It's just one shortcut away. And you can always move the icons to the
right side by yourself. I personally see no valid points in your mail.

Just my opinion.
