Probably because the distros are not shipping 4.7 yet. (4.1 to 4.6 actually do show desktop icons by default, in a folder view widget which is set up by default.) Or because users upgrading from a previous version of Plasma get to keep their folder view, and those are the ones already testing 4.7. Or maybe because the distros are now overriding this broken 4.7 default, as Fedora is now doing for Fedora 16 (as of kde-settings-4.7-7.fc16). (We restore the good old folder view widget, otherwise people won't even see an icon to install their live CD to the hard disk: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=740676 . Note that this fix is actually not yet in F16 Beta, it will be in F16 Final. And any complaints about us actually using the JavaScript-based customization feature Plasma explicitly offers for distributions to use will be sent straight to /dev/null…) I'm fairly sure that when the first major distro starts shipping with 4.7 without a custom Plasma init script enabling the folder view of ~/Desktop one way or the other (either as a widget as in 4.6 or in Fedora 16, or the KDE-3-style "folder view as desktop" mode), complaints will start popping in in droves.
