I think that the idea of multiple links is a very good one.  I would like to
have the applications that I use alot on the desktop, but also in their
proper places in my file stucture.  Resedit is one that I can think of.

It seems that part of the code to implement this is already in place.  When
I put something on the desktop, it does disappear from its folder (and
nothing can find it there), but when I select the app and choose "Put away"
from finder's menubar, it goes back where it was.  I would like to see this
extended such that I could have it BOTH on the desktop and in its folder
(without having two copies!).
