As I mentioned before:
It's the only mail I read of this thread, but
sorry, anyway I need to
reply, because the standards of freedesktop very often cause trouble on
my machines, e.g. when using GNOME and KDE and editing the menus, e.g.
by using Alacarte.
My recommendations for you and the OP are similar: if you have some valuable
proposal or good ideas to solve real problems for everybody, please push your
proposals to freedesktop.org so they can be applied to the broader audience.
It would be much more comfortable if each WM/DE would
use it's own
files. Btw. I guess most Linux audio users will start most
applications by using a terminal instead of a menu.
While the package manager will install an application, it could ask for
the wanted menu entry. When I made reports because of problems with
freedesktop standards, when using e17 and GNOME, I got a reply that
people should use e17 only and not e17 and GNOME. If I don't want to
have conflicts because of freedesktop standards when using e17 and
GNOME, I should pay somebody to solve this.
So again, my good idea is that all desktops have their own files, thus a
user will be able to customize the menus, desktop etc. without having
trouble.
