Description Matthew Monaco 2012-04-01 19:50:41 UTC 
When using nautilus to draw desktop icons, the icon text now has the Name and Comment field from the .desktop file.

I spoke with Cosimo about this on IRC, and it seems like [1] was the offending commit. He had said he'd revert, but I guess just lost track.

Please revert or make an exception for the desktop context.

Hi Matthew, thanks for reminding me. I now fixed this in git master.
