this maybe simple things but actually windows have it, it called toolbar, take a look this pick

and how to get it is really simple, just right click on the taskbar and select "Toolbars" and select whatever toolbar you want after that drag n drop the toolbar from taskbar to desktop (toolbar must be not in lock mode) then you can make it auto hide, always on top and make the desktop icon hide

I tried this, but for some reason or other I cant drag the toolbar onto the desktop. Its not locked but it wont move.

I am using a different windows theme, maybe that has something to do with it.

Cool idea though, I was going to give it a try.
