I just noticed that if you left-click on your Gnome desktop, hold the button down and move the mouse, you create a little semi-transparent box on your desktop. It goes away as soon as you release the mouse button. What is that for, if anything at all?
It is a selection 'lasso' that should select any icons that you encompass. Then you can do any of the usual things that you can do to selected icons - drag, copy, delete, etc. Most other windows should work the same way.
