------- Additional Comments From kristoffer.lunden@gmail.com 2007-08-02 15:09 ------- I've done some research (aka Googling) and while there seems to be no real authority on this, it seems GNOME, KDE, XFCE as well as supporting libs (GTK+) all think that ~/Desktop and ~ are the only real alternatives, even if others could be possible.
Given that it's extremely unlikely someone would have a ~/Desktop directory not used as desktop, just adding a fallback to ~ seems like a good solution.
