Hi,
I've a question about the choice for a good category key for xdg desktop
files, based on a discussion here:
https://github.com/jackaudio/new-session-manager/issues/96
For that particular category (NSM) two keys are chosen,
X-NSM-Capable=true and X-NSM-Exec=zynaddsubfx -I jack -O jack
The question is, if two keys are really needed or if one would cover all
situations.
About X-NSM-Exec there is no discussion, but it's also argued that the
second X-NSM-Capable is needed, because it needs to be a boolean with
the following argumentation:
"It is important that this is a boolean value, so that it can be
manually set to off if needed. (for example, user override of this value
via local files as a way to filter specific entries; could be used also
as post-install step in some projects where NSM/liblo is optional at
build-time). So applications scanning the desktop files need to make
sure to read the value and it be "true"."
Is this argumentation valid? Or can one also remove a key from the
desktop file or just set the key empty (X-NSM-Exec=), to set it off
manually or as post-install step? In that case one would only need one
key for this category, which is preferable probably.

Flomer
