I was thinking more of something along the lines of
'#!/usr/bin/run_desktop_file'. Desktop files are equivalent to
shell scripts anyway. The only thing missing is that one cannot use
them transparently because exec() does not know what to do with
them. This limits their use to a few Freeesktop-aware applications.
Adding the above line and making _trusted_ desktop files executable
would fix this oversight.
Hmmm... Of course, "launching" a desktop file could be done by simply
executing it, then, which makes quite a bit of sense.
