Nice list! I like a clean desktop.
I also untick the "volumes_visible" entry there (same place). This means that, when I plug in a USB drive, an icon for it does NOT appear on the desktop. It still appears in Nautilus.
The reason I do this is that I keep a backup external hard drive (USB) plugged in and I don't want its icon on the desktop, but I still want to get at it with Nautilus.
