           Summary: .desktop entries without "Categories" section does not
                    show up in Gnome menu
           Product: Portland
           Version: beta3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

There is no "generic" location for items without a "Categories=" section in the
Gnome Menu.

This type of .desktop entries is usually used to registrer a MimeType with an
application, without showing the app in the menu.

Instead, a Categories=Application; should be used in the .desktop files
