Hi,
Would anyone object to me removing the code in Tracker that handles the 
"Integrate non-boot desktops" feature? We no longer expose it in the
preflet anyways, and I'm working on making the desktop folder directly 
browseable which should render it entirely useless anyhow. Thoughts?
I've found this feature confusing the first time I saw it. IMHO, the Trash folder should simply not be in the Desktop. I absolutely agree with Desktop being in my home folder, but I don't think creating "home(/Desktop)" on every BFS volume makes *any* sense. And I think it only happens because of 
Trash being in home/Desktop. I would greatly appreciate if this got
changed. It will all make even less sense when really switching to
multi-user. I think Trash should be a hidden folder in the root of every BFS volume, and each user should have a subfolder in Trash, with Tracker 
completely ignoring the Trash folders of other users.

Best regards,
-Stephan
