--- Comment #16 from Nick H <[email protected]> ---
I'm having the same problem as others here such as Brian and darhma. Ever since
I started using rules to send programs to certain desktops this trash button
has been breaking the rules which then need fixing. It's happened three times
in a few days and I generally haven't realised that I've clicked the invisible
trash button that becomes visible. OK I just found that it happened yet again
whilst typing this; again without me knowing, so that is probably one reason
'undo' alone won't be the answer.

If people want to keep it quick and easy to create/delete virtual desktops, I
think that the drag and drop is the best solution. However, yes it may be
challenging to implement. 

A couple solutions I came up with today:

1. There is a thumbnail to add a desktop with a plus (+) on it, why not to the
right of it add another with a minus (-), which will remove the highlighted
desktop? That way it will a distance of mouse travel away from the desktops
that it's very unlikely to be clicked by mistake.

2. Take the delete rubbish bin/trash can icon out of the thumbnail virtual
desktop and move it outside of the box but to the far right corner in-line with
the text for the desktop's name.

Of these I think the first would be the most effective for *not* clicking close
accidentally as it's further away, and is always visible, unlike the red
rubbish bins.

I will attempt to attach mockup images of both options.
