Sorry for not having been clear enough, I was not talking about the
"exec" workaround. For NoDisplay, you could use a small autostart
script which writes/modifies a .desktop file according to the locale
in $XDG_DATA_HOME/share/applications. In case URL refers to HTML
pages, a workaround similar to the "exec" one could be used, though
with other MIME types you are indeed out of luck as far as I can see.
In fact, localized URL entries don't sound outright insane to me :-)
Regards,
Florian
