Just FYI for anyone that stumbles upon this thread. In Ubuntu 20.04, if you want to work around the issue for now it can be done by placing your preferred desktop files in the home (or any other) folder and just placing link files to those files on your desktop. When you do this you can still double click and edit files directly from the desktop, but when you save it doesn't lose or move around the desktop files. It even eliminates the flicker.
