Public bug reported:

I have installed Gnome Web snap package version 3.36.4-3-g5ceac60b4d and
I'm on Ubuntu 20.04.1

I can create a web application from a website (by using Gnome Web's
`Install site as Web Application` feature). However, the web
application's files all go to `~/snap/epiphany/current/.local/share/`,
including the generated `.desktop`. This makes it impossible for me to
use the Gnome dash to find and open it.

I would expect that at least the `.desktop` file would be placed under
`~/.local/share/applications` instead.
