This is wider than Unity.
Does the GNOME lookup table work properly with mimeapps.list?
What about other desktop environments?
I think that to get rid of the compatibility files (a good goal), we
probably want to in fact do something with session-migration.
Like:
- packages put a file somewhere saying that they've renamed
- session-migration updates mimeapps.list
- DEs or flavours or session-migration ships some kind of hook to update
their own sauce in user configs
Problem:
- session-migration will only run each hook once, so a new package
dropping a file in some .d/ directory won't cause the hook to be re-run.
That'll need to be overcome somehow.
I don't plan on working on this (at least not right away), so someone
else should feel free to pick it up.
