Ditto. I always thought it was just me even though I reported this around almost a year ago. Just right-clicking for desktop not only kills the conceptual menu but hikes the cpu wild & hot, forget even activating the fixed desktop slideshow feature which locks the cpu to run high and hot even if you log out and in as different users which results in blank (gray) backgrounds; only a total reboot kicks the CPU off. I like Xfce's native slideshow, but this issue is making me resort to directly booting into Wallch, sidestepping desktop. I briefly once "re-set" the CPU by dumping the sessions folder and starting anew, but as sooon as you did the desktop or window tweaks thing the cpu got kicked and culling out sessions all the time was getting laborious. This issue ought be rated highly because it directly affects laptop users because a runaway xfdesktop can literally kill off a third to a half of your battery charge. Pity the unwary!
