And there are many technical users who actually use the desktop as it's main folder. Why waste time opening a file manager when a single desktop switch to an empty one will give you access to the files you currently work with?
Off course this only makes sense when you can arrange the icons as you like, grouping them by type or usage, and having folders on the desktop for the others that you don't need so frequently (and remembering their locations, which is one thing KDE 4 seems to still don't get right some times).
And off course this doesn't make sense for the source code of a project.

I don't do everything on the desktop, just a lot. As a general rule, the less technical something is and/or the more I am working on it by myself, the more likely it is to be on the desktop. Important desktop files get moved/archived as appropriate. I have a lot of folders on the desktop. It's not a complete soup of file anarchy.
