>From the discussion on IRC:
- nautilus upstream is not drawing the desktop (gnome-shell is doing it for itself)
- we do have an override in ubuntu-default-settings to ask nautilus to draw the desktop

Consequently, without it, you won't have anything to refresh the
background, which seems broken but it the normal behavior.

However, we can't force that for everyone as it will break other
sessions for no good reason and the ubuntu-default-settings is installed
by default on ubuntu (and so people don't get this bug).

If you want to ensure that compiz is grabbing it (or maybe unity), we
can maybe make unity dep on this configuration, but that's still
incorrect IMHO.
