Not sure if that's automatically handled, or not.  Most likely it's just
a straight file copy, that'll expect certain paths to exist, or create
them (regardless of whether that user account would use ~/Desktop as the
desktop directly, or not).

Which desktop interface do you use?  There are some central management
tools for Gnome, one called sabayon should be a simple yum install away.
See: http://live.gnome.org/Sabayon  I haven't actually tried this,
myself.

There should be similar tools for other desktops.  And you might want to
Google "internet cafe" or "kiosk mode" for configuring a bunch of
computers in a very controlled manner.  I have tried this, years ago,
but don't recall much.  I'd guess that library mode, or central
management, might be some other likely search keywords.
