There is a UNIX trick around on the net that allows you to put widgets on the desktop. I have not tried it as I have not found a significant discomfort in pressing f12 when necessary. I also am nervous about tinkering with the UNIX underpinnings for something like cosmetics. Dashboard in the whole is quite nice but I see lots of widgets on the desktop itself as more clutter than help.
