Or does it already? I don't know, they are working on a ApplicationMenu, but I think it's only activated when the program is running, and is something you have to provide in code. 3) Is the action really useful? Launching the geany command while Geany is already running already starts a new instance. The default Unity action, when you have an instance of geany already running, is to switch to that instance when you click the icon again. If the --new-instance is a problem, I can remove it. If it doesn't make a difference, it might be better to be explicit about the intent of the shortcut.

I haven't tested it, but anything outside of the [Desktop Entry] section shouldn't cause any harm, and the X- attribute in that section should also be ignored by any environment that doesn't want to use it.
