>Suppose someone, instead of creating a shortcut, drags an actual file to a desktop icon. Is there any way to find out where the file's home directory was, in order to put it back? It seems to get completely lost...
I would think of it as just moving a file from one directory to another. As far as I know, once the file has been moved, there isn't a way to determine where it was moved from.
