What do you want to do with this desktop?
If you play with the xscreensaver hacks, you'll find that most of them
(all AFAIK) can be run as a "root" window.
You can pretty much do the same with _any_ application if you:
- Run it with no decorations (find out what your WM needs to do for
this).
- Run it sized to your desktop.
- Run it pinned to the bottom of your window stack.
- Enable or disable keybindings, as desired.
While I don't run a browser like this (nor do I think I'd want to), I do
run a number of applications "on the desktop", including xrootconsole
and xload monitors for my networked systems.
Peace.
