In, KDE rather that then desktop icons all being on the desktop, they are in a plasmoid called folderview, which looks a tiny bit like a folder window.

There is a similar thing for Windows, Stardock fences.

Is there anything like that for GNOME?

Install screenlets
Then install this screenlet

Run gconf-editor
Then
apps > nautilus > preferences
Then deselect show_desktop
