Changed to confirmed, There shouldn't be any need to visible show hidden folder.
Also automounting it in login, is unneeded behaviour, security risk IMHO.

Impossible to remove Private directory desktop icon

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

As of now (Intrepid Beta 8.10), the Private directory gets a shiny icon on the 
desktop. Unfortunately, it is always on the desktop and is in fact impossible 
to remove. Why can this icon be turned off? This seems intuitive, especially 
for people who 
a: don't like desktop icons cluttering the workspace (but do want to see 
mounted directories) 
or b: don't want to declare to the world that they have a Private directory.

The current workaround is to disable the icons for all future mounted 
directories.
$ gconftool-2 -s  --type bool  /apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible  false

This is less than ideal, as users such as myself will want to see other 
directories that we mount.
