I spent many hours on this problem myself during the testing of 7.1.  If you
kill your ~/.gnome directory you get those bland, unchangeable icons the
next time you start gmc.  But simply deleting the ~/.gnome/metadata.db fixes
it.  Why the regenerated metadata.db is different from the one generated
when the .gnome directory is created is beyond me.
