KDE doesn't *need* fixing, it isn't broke. Konq already (can) display as
Konqueror Web Browswer
IMO, the fact that other apps (and gnome) in Fedora does this
differently by abusing
Name=
vs.
GenericName=
in .desktip files is bad/wrong/silly/bug. As long as I have any input
on it,
* KDE will not go down that road, ever.
* Packaging Guidelines should be updated highlight/avoid such abuse
