Hi Sam,
XFCE 4.8 which is included in Fedora 17 does *not* support this,
however it is a new feature in the Desktop Manager (xfdesktop) in XFCE
4.10. Although unsupported Kevin Fenzi has a repo set up for 4.10
(although there is a broken package at the moment...read about it
here: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/xfce/2012-May/001194.html).

You can find the repo at:
http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/kevin/xfce-4.10/ (just download
the .repo file to your /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory). Also this is
unsupported, so you are upgrading at your own risk. I have installed
4.10 on one of my machines (by using --skip-broken) and it's running
great.
