Hello GNOME (and freedom) lovers :) http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426196
This bug is a bit of a thorn in my side, I've written a patch but it has remained unreviewed for some time. As federico has renewed some interest in GNOME main menu by assigning someone to profile and improve the performance it may be that this makes it into the next version of GNOME. For GNOME main menu to make it into GNOME proper it is important that inconsistencies like this are repaired, this single patch brings the .desktop editing in the panel into alignment with the current features of nautilus, allowing the user to specify the GenericName tag. I know there has been some discussion regarding the implications of using GenericName however I think if we're even to begin moving forward and making a decision on how GenericName can be used elsewhere (e.g. menu bar applet) we should at least bring both of the current .desktop editing techniques into alignment. I propose that we get this patch in by GNOME 2.22 if possible and then we'll at least have the functionality there. Any thoughts?
