It was removed because it takes up more time of the boot/login sequence than it should (around 3s).
In practice, there are better ways to signify the desktop is ready than have each individual component individually animating in their own way. One good idea would be that the screen holds at the login screen after entering your password (e.g. with "Logging in...") and the desktop fades in when everything's ready.
