Is there a replacement for the Fences application for Ubuntu 11.10?

Fences lets you organize the icons and application shortcuts on the desktop by creating containers for the desktop icons. It is different from Folderview. Folderview shows the contents of the folder in a container but Fences lets you organize the desktop icons into a container.
