Replying to [comment:4 saraedum]:
> Is `data/` the default place where something like this should live?
(Just asking if it is worth creating a new top-level directory for
something like this.)
Coming from the gnome universe I put it into `data/`, but it shouldn't
really matter.
> Should we also ship an icon since it is mentioned in the desktop file?
We should do that.
If we provide these files it will be easier for the user recognize
sagemath across various distributions.
P.S. A desktop file is required if we want to ship an appdata file
