The Nautilus search box (I don't know if there is a name for it), it shows up whenever I start to type when I'm on the desktop (All applications are closed).

Is it normal feature?

Is it a problem or a bug?

Is it possible to remove it from the desktop only?

I would think this is expected behavior when using the 'Have file manager handle the desktop' option. If it's showing up with that option disabled then that could be a bug.

I believe that option is now default enabled for both unity* & gnome-shell - I'm assuming you're using 11.10, you haven't specified what you're on.
