Even if the desktop turns out to be done though, UX polish like that drag thing is still a good idea. Like why does no major desktop let you just put icons on your desktop the way classic Windows does?

KDE doesn't let you do it either. You can only put desktop widgets on your KDE desktop.
For what it's worth, I don't use the gnome app drawer either. I exclusively use the dock + search to launch applications, so in my workflow both are actually pointless. I would still argue that opening the app drawer to reach your application shortcuts is easier and more consistent than resizing/minimizing windows to un-obstruct the desktop until you can point and click to launch an application. But I suppose managing folders on your desktop could be viewed as a plus? I'm not sure if GNOME's app menu supports that.
>KDE doesn't let you do it either My bad. I'm not too familiar with KDE.
I agree with the other poster that it isn't really a good idea though.
Because that is a crappy UX where you need to minimize or move windows away to access them.
