Hi,

Currently, there is a de facto policy for entries in the GNOME menu; 
because place in the menu is scarce and a menu easily becomes 
unreadable, applications that are only viewers for some kind of file 
types have their menu entry disabled by default. This is already the 
case for eog and evince, and the question arises for totem (although it 
can also play URIs).

I think swfdec-gnome is in this situation, and as such its menu entry is 
not very useful. The real case where it will get used is when you 
double-click on a .swf file in the file manager. Therefore, please apply 
the attached patch to hide the entry. (It will still be possible to 
enable it again in the menu editor.)

Cheers,
--
