Yeah, I read that.  Now, read the specification :)

I guess I am wondering how will the icon be located? I am fine using

the .pm file, if it's supported. The reason I suggested a .png file

(which I think should go in contrib/desktopentry/) was so that it might

be installed in a global area where it's likely to be found by the login

manager. I am not familiar with the standards in this area.

If we just specify the .pm file, how will the login manager know where

to find it?

Jon suggested we use a png, but I think that if it is accepting of xpms, we 
should use that one to save space, I will post an alternate patch and leave it 
up to Jon.

Just asking, now I realized it's a perfect subject for bikeshedding, where 
everyone may have an opinion :)
