i've noticed that that parsing /usr/share/app-install/desktop is quite
simple, using this list in LSC is very fast.
the problem is merge two list. USC hide the non-real application
packages, but i think is best do a think like this:
in the preferences dialog (TODO) we will put a combo or a checkbutton
calling it "Expert mode", if the "Expert mode" is active all the
pacackages will be listed (by default is off), if not the list will
contains only the real applications packages (suitable for beginner).

another problem is that most of the desktop files, in
/usr/share/app-install/desktop, in the section "Categories" have more of
one value (e.g. AudioVideo and Graphics as in the package StopMotion).
where lsc should append this packages?
