Comment 1 Viktor Jancik 2015-08-18 10:17:00 UTC
It would seem that enabling:
Icons on Desktop

in Gnome Tweak Tool, makes the Desktop folder appear in Favorites in Nautilus.
This is great, but I still think it should be there by default, as it is a working "special" folder whether the Icons on Desktop are turned on or not.
