Comment (by humdinger):

 I don't know these Windows and MacOS functions, I assume they hide every
 window so you can see the Desktop. Personally, I always have at least one
 empty workspace that I can quickly switch to.[[BR]]
 IMO, special casing the Desktop folder to be also openable in window mode
 makes most sense. Sometimes, I may want to see the Desktop in list view
 mode (if there are many files or I like to see file size or other
 attributes.
