gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons true
Note that nautilus seems to crash when the key is changed while it is
running, so do it before starting nautilus.
If this is the sort of thing that people who have set up their desktop with
icons may want, but we don't want as the normal way going forwards, why
not set this key to be enabled in the gconf->gsettings migration schema, but
off in the actual schema default for new installs?
