I would love if kdesktop would implement support for .hidden files ala the newest gnome release and OS X.
You can see an example of my desktop here: www.lusis. org/static/ screenshot- marked. png

The folders marked in red, I don't wish to see. I am aware that I can hide them with the ageold trick of renaming the folders with . in front but many applications such as evolution do not allow you to change the location of the datastore at all.
This desire is drawn out of my use of my home directory (~/) as my desktop root. I find it helps me keep things more organized when I'm forced to look at them cluttering up my desktop.
In the newest version of Gnome and OS X, one can create a file in any directory called ".hidden". The syntax of that file is simply a list of folders and files you wish to not be displayed on the desktop or within the file manager. Apple uses this to hide the disk volume folders from the Finder. Since I'm unable to move the evolution datastore, I would love to be able to at least HIDE it from my desktop view.
