The substance of this isn't changed as far as I can tell: the brunt of
creating all these .desktop files and maybe icons still lies on us.

I still agree with a point made in the last thread:

What's so bad about filing this as an upstream request instead? It
significantly reduces our work since we don't have to do it for hundreds
of packages. Instead, an upstream developer only has to do it once.
