Actually the original places module had a very clean presence on the
desktop. It used to show no internal drives and it would be completely
invisible when placed as a gadget. Even mouse clicks would go right
through it to the desktop. *Only* when you plugged in an external drive, it
would show the device icon and show other options. I really enjoyed using
places this way. Invisible until you need it and when you want it opens the
drives on the fm of your choosing.
