Sorry, I was more referring here to actual bug reports.  If something's
crashing on Xubuntu's patched version of whatever, I don't really want
to hear about it.  I don't know the details of the version they're
using.  While we're in the beta cycle, I'm fixing bugs as I see them, so
it wastes my time to hear about bugs unless people have tested against
current SVN trunk.

As for behavior, sure, fire away.  I'm not particularly happy with the
context menu handling with xfdesktop + file icon view right now, but
it's the best I can do without turning xfdesktop into something it's
not.  The icon view (especially the *file* icon view) is an add-on
feature intended as an interim solution.  It is what it is, and I'm not
going to compromise the maintainability of xfdesktop just to make the
context menu of the file icon view make more sense.  Nor do I want to
spend a large amount of time finding maintainable solutions.
