How are you doing that? you need to tap on the little cog icon in order to move or delete shortcuts and widgets.

I agree very annoying as I have done this several times and ended up with deleted widgets and widgets moved to different screens - and there is no viable reason for a long press to enter edit mode. IMO

If you tap and keep down the background of the desktop it goes into edit mode.
I've just read about a modified hildon desktop which has a gconf setting (/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/key-actions/disable_edit) to disable the desktop edit.

So I'll give that a try when I get a chance.

...but you do lock screen when you put it in your pocket don't you? and still you find that things are shifted and/or deleted?

I keep moving or deleting the widgets when either on the phone or by accident when it's in my pocket.
Would be good if the edit could be disabled somehow, especially teh one where if you click and hold on the desktop, it goes into edit mode. This seems to be the one which most often activates by accident.
Cheers,
Menno
