So I suggest to move in Accessories category as "File Manager"; yes,
remove definitively was a bad idea. If you need a more quick access you
can add a launcher to panel from here.

But I don't think that keep it in current place is good, it's better
make stuff categorized and minimize items in menu. Plus, if you use the
default setup it's annoying (you can access to home via desktop icon).
