Well I'm not much of an irc person so someone should ask, ect. but the 
intention isn't as important as the result.
Atm 13.04 is not ready for nautilus not handling the Desktop.
Putting aside no Hud on Desktop, no icons, no right click, & misc. 
random user misbehavior, try  -
disable nautilus handling Desktop on a default install or better boot to 
a current image that does so.
open, then minimize a window, generally it will lock up
I don't think that's what should be presented

Title:
  The file manager (nautilus) handling the Desktop is not being enabled
  in live session

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This has been happening much more often than not in recent weeks. Come release that image should have the Desktop enabled in a live session or you're providing a sub-optimal "Try Ubuntu" experience in 13.04
  Todays live image is the latest to suffer from this, the beta2 release the same..
