1) Is this naming scheme in any of the XDG specifications? If not, in
which spec does it belong - I would certainly expect it in the desktop
entry spec since it discusses the "mimeinfo.cache" file already.
It is explained in the menu specification. See the explanation of
"Desktop File Id" in
http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/1.0/go01.html and also the
explanation of AppDir in
http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/1.0/ar01s04.html#menu-file-el

Thanks!
I would strongly suggest that a reference to this is added in the
DesktopEntry spec in the part where to mimeinfo.cache file is named. I
doesn't feel logical to look in the menu spec for this.

2) How do I resolve a desktop file from the mimeinfo.cache file ?
Obvious replacing dashes by '/' isn't going to work since I find things
like "xterm-usercreated.desktop" in my ".local/share/applications/"
directory
You will need to check for both xterm-usercreated.desktop and
xterm/usercreated.desktop
So if I encounter foo-bar-baz.desktop I have 4 combinations to check ?
Or can foo-usercreated be considered an exception ?
Thanks,
