Hi Just earlier a user encountered an issue with xdg-settings, which would complain about an "unknown desktop environment". Looked in the code and sure enough, it hard-checks for $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP and actually only implements kde, gnome and xfce. All other DEs are implemented with a "dispatch_generic" which would be suitable for any DE, really.
Seeing as we have generic functions in all xdg-* commands, cant we merely check whether XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is set at all, and if it is (and we dont have a specific function for the DE in question), use the generic one? Writing a new DE shouldn't require changing these tools. As long as we don't do nonstandard stuff, they should just work. J.
