Played around with the org.mate. schemata in /usr/share/glib-2.0,
but no progress. The dichotomy in the nameing scheme stems from
a special 'path=' argument for the background schema, but the
mate names in general apparently don't use the desktop folder (and
editing this into the file, renaming and compiling it causes indeed
loss of all those preferences).
So no clue yet why the show-desktop-icons switch doesn't work, and
right click mouse shows no context menu (on background).
