Title:
  "new tab" on desktop nautilus makes awkward desktop experience

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  click on desktop so nautilus has focus.

  1. you'll not that in the toolbar, the menu shows if you mouse over
  it, but it doesn't have a title (this is inconsistent with all other
  apps).

  2. choose 'file -> new tab'.

  you should get an all white screen (see screenshots). The white is
  actually a new tab in nautilus. you can see in another screenshot that
  if you move the mouse just below the power cog, there is a close tab
  button. Pressing that gets you back to your normal, expected desktop.

  this is really awkward for the user.
