start gnome in a dualhead setup with two separete displays :0 and :1.
then on :0 all the icons appear and on :1 you feel quiete lost... 

however this is not only dualhead specific. often I just want to use ctrl+l to
browse a smb:// share or so when I am on the desktop. then I have to click on
some icon just to open the location window which then brings me to the location
I wanted to go...

I guess a good thing would be if:

1. all shortcuts that apply on nautilus windows also work on the desktop
2. there was some menu entry to open a new window/location (instead of 3 create
... menu entries which could be very well put under just one create... point
with submenu folder/launcher/templatedocument1/templatedocument2/...)
