In what sense is the desktop "dead", as a matter of

He means the KDE 4.0 limitation that changes to icons on the desktop are not
reflected on the file system, which means that if you (ab)use the desktop to
store files on, it won't behave as expected. That should be fixed in 4.1 with
the new folderview applet.
