[Feature Request] Desktop name in panel

Created by: mrprobot

Unity had a feature that showed "Ubuntu Desktop" in the top left of the panel if no window was focused or when it just showed the desktop. In Gnome Shell desktop symbols has to be activated, so if you click on the desktop the opened windows get unfocused.

If it's possible it would be great if the extension could fetch the right name of the Distro that's used. Maybe this link can help:
