Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

As of now (Intrepid Beta 8.10), the Private directory gets a shiny icon on the desktop. Unfortunately, it is always on the desktop and is in fact impossible to remove. Why can this icon be turned off? This seems intuitive, especially for people who 
a: don't like desktop icons cluttering the workspace (but do want to see mounted directories) 
or b: don't want to declare to the world that they have a Private directory.

The current workaround is to disable the icons for all future mounted directories.
$ gconftool-2 -s  --type bool  /apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible  false

This is less than ideal, as users such as myself will want to see other directories that we mount.
