Public bug reported:

On a clean Disco install by default we get the desktop icons, but the
extension appears as disabled in gnome-tweaks: the setting is not
consistent with the actual observed behavior.

It seems that the extension "switch" in gnome-tweaks has no effect: even
when turned off changing the extension settings (by clicking on the gear
icon) does change which icons are shown on the desktop. This also means
that the extension can't be fully disabled, removing all the desktop
icons. Note that turning off the "personal folder" and "trash" icons is
not enough: the contents of ~/Desktop are still shown.

Uninstalling gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons is not an option, as it
is a dependency of ubuntu-desktop-minimal.

This is observed on Disco with gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons
19.01.1-1.
