I recall reading that Gnome 2.4 had the new feature of fixing icons to a 
grid, so Cleanup by name may simply snap them to the closest grid. Look 
for desktop settings somewhere, hopefully that's an easy option that you 
don't have to use gconf for.

I would like to note that Align to Grid was something present in the Red 
Hat releases a few years ago in the early days of Gnome. I forget what 
the default window manager was. Probably Enlightenment, but it might 
have been Sawbox/Sawfish. I have missed it ever since and am glad to see 
it back.
