Following up to self: the "Name GenericName" may be a too simplistic
approach wrt i18n, probably language specific ways to construct the
labels would be needed (but I guess those two fields could still be
used).

Comments welcome, ie. how to implement GNOME HIG -compliant menu entry
labels in freedesktop.org desktop entry files for Fedora?  The only
technical documentation about this (that I'm aware of) is the
freedesktop.org desktop entry specification, and AFAICS stuffing both
app_name and app_function into the Name field in a .desktop file is
somewhat against it; an app_name<->Name, and app_function<->GenericName
mapping would sound better to me.
