[hackers] Desktop icons in dwm

One thing I miss with dwm is shortcut icons on my desktop. Is anyone aware of
a patch that would add those or a really simple desktop app? I found one here
but it's really old and doesn't build:

Failing that, I'm considering making something. I started reading up on xcb,
which I guess has replaced xlib, but I couldn't figure out how to get a window
mapped beneath all the others. Have a look here if you like: http://ix.io/pFd.
It can be built with the -lxcb option (assuming you have libxcb).
