Off the top of my head, gnome-session-properties, gnome-control-center, and alacarte are all cross-desktop apps that would have an interest in knowing the desktop name to control desktop file parsing.
And those are just in GNOME. Other desktops may have similar apps that want to know. And some apps that aren't written yet may want to know.
If libgnome-menu were to add such a set_desktop_name() function, it would only kick the problem up one layer. If that next layer happened to be the shell, then great, because shells *are* the desktop. But otherwise it's not much help.
