You have been able to have links to applications on the desktop for ages - I 
think 4.2 brought that.  You should set your desktop type (right-click on the 
desktop, Desktop Activity Settings - or similar, since not all distros use the 
same wording) to Folderview, after which most behaviour is the same as KDE 
3.5.
