Are you talking about the icons on the desktop background
specifically?
I thought you meant defaults for the whole desktop environment.

Those icons are best filled in with /etc/skel at the moment, or by 
adding a script in /etc/profile.d. Just fill in the user's
~/.gnome-desktop with the .desktop files you want.

gnome-desktop, gnome-panel, nautilus, metacity are sort of the core
ones. gnome-session is sometimes involved.
