When desktop_is_home_dir the menu Places still show "Desktop"

This happen with main-menu and menubar, I guess 'menu applet' component refers both of them, because it's a matter of look & feel difference. If /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_is_home_dir has been set to True, it means that Home directory is the same than Desktop. So, it's reduntant having both of them as 'Places' when they refers the same thing. The expected behavior is a menu consistent with the preference choosen for nautilus. This issue is related to bug 144500.
