Well, i don't know if that issue of Home desktop icon were fixed (i'm
Ubuntu user, very repository-based, and can't be assured immediatelly)
- it early were named as 'My Documents', which can be dangerous on
newbies and power-users, which may think it is really the Documents
folder, and accidentally remove unix account important files (like
hidden ones, i used to have all shown) - My Documents folder should
target '~/Documents/', and not '~/'

The desktop icons could be displayed based on Gnome's Configuration
Editor (i don't know which file or files it edits...), just like
Nautilus does - Nautilus uses /apps/nautilus/desktop/ hierarchy tags -
items there are: computer_icon_visible, home_icon_visible (which one
early LXDE used 'My Documents' name wrongly), network_icon_visible,
trash_icon_visible, and volumes_visible

Otherwise, PcManFm needs a huge ammount of improvements, like
accessing Nautilus Scripts as easy (very, very useful!), directory
bookmarks, etc. - i can't recall all of them now, but there are plenty
of improvements needed on PcManFm, which surelly will not make them a
heavy file manager, like Nautilus were being... - as far as i can
recall, i'll keep answering this exact mailinglist post

Another situation scarred me weeks ago (also alarmed PcMan), were that
network-manager dependence on LXDE in the Ubuntu repository, removed
nm-applet due on a conflict - nm-applet could be optional, as well
among other interesting and useful file managers

thanks and cheers,
Paulo
