Public bug reported:

If you right click on a desktop launcher and select an application to
launch it e.g. Text Editor, some launchers do not populate the
application. For example:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Calendar
Type=Link
URL=https://calendar.google.com/calendar/render?tab=mc#main_7
Icon=/home/rob/user1/Graphics/calendar.png

This happens in both budgie and gnome shell on 17.04. If you change the
file name from calendar.desktop to calendar.txt it works correctly.

Secondly, if you look at the permissions for this type of launcher, you
get the message "The permissions of "ServiceLogin" could not be
determined."
