When attempting to open a Tracker window of the Desktop folder, the system
seems to think that the Desktop is already open. The user thinks it is
broken. This idea is not right. There is a difference between the Desktop,
that space behind all your open Windows that has theTrash, Disk Icons, and
all the stuff the user places there, and a Desktop Tracker Window, a fully
functional Tracker Window. In the Tracker one can sort by attributes such
as Name, Size, Kind, Modified etc. One should also be able to modify
attributes such as Artist, Title, Album etc.
We should think of the Desktop as the background that can hold files,
replicants etc, but not as if it were an open Tracker Window. The Desktop
Tracker Window is really where the files are stored, the Desktop is just
another, limited, special representation of this folder.
