The home and desktop entries are permanent entries in the shortcut side pane, but it is still possible to add them to the non-permanent movable entries below Trash.

ok for me .. though it looks like you start to do nitpicking ... how about fixing some real bug ? I think someting more challenging would fit better for you  :)

Just something i noticed while i was in shortcut view, which i never am in, so thought to file it. :D

The GTK file chooser does not hide user added entries for home or desktop either.

Never said that it does. Just saying that adding duplicate entries of this is possible when its not possible for other bookmarked folders.

Thunar has the ability to hide individual side pane entries. If a bookmark for home or desktop is present for a valid reason, you could either hide the permanent entry or the bookmarked one to prevent duplicates.

The point is that you arent allowed to have duplicate bookmark entries and with home and desktop you can have duplicate entries under places. I believe if this wasn't a real bug then alex would have closed it as such.
