redhat 7.2 icons on desktop

Hello all,

Is there a way to change the behavior of the gnome desktop manager so that when your iconify a window it will be place on the desktop intead on on the task manager (gnome-panel)? It gets confusing having to loook throught the gnome-panle for the window I want when you have alot of windows up. I know that I can drag the windows I want on the desktop. That is OK but the window if fixed, meaning if I log out and then log in again the icons will be there even though I may not be using them. I guess I wanted to know if when I iconfiy a window it would behavior like CDE on solaris?
