** Description changed:
PROBLEM
It is not possible to access the Desktop folder via the dash, the way
you can access the "Documents" or "Pictures" folders (for instance).
This is a problem when one wants to get to the desktop without hiding
all other windows, for instance, or open a Nautilus session targeting
the desktop.
HOW TO REPRODUCE
1. Hit the "Super" key to bring up the dash.
2. Type in the word "desktop."
An arbitrary selection of files on your desktop will appear in the files
and folders listing, mixed in with items like Synaptic for no apparent
reason.
