Since it is a hack, it is up to you to choose which name look better for
you :)

Can I assume the $XDG_DATA_DIRS have the fall back logic? e.g. if foo1.desktop is found in both /usr/share/applications and /usr/share/translations, /usr/share/translations/applications/foo1.desktop only is choosed. if foo2.desktop is found in /usr/share/applications but not /usr/share/translations, /usr/share/applications/foo2.desktop is choosed.

IIRC, first hit is taking precedence, except for user directories (ie
~/.local ). You should check menu specification to be sure.
