Maybe example would clarify things? The spec would need an example anyway.

Here is the list of items from local to global:

local desktop-specific list:
	[Default Applications]
	foo/bar=app2.desktop
	[Added Associations]
	foo/bar=app3.desktop
	[Removed Associations]
	foo/bar=app4.desktop

local list:
	[Removed Associations]
	foo/bar=app3.desktop

local applications:
	app5.desktop

global desktop-specific list:
	[Default Applications]
	foo/bar=app3.desktop
	[Added Associations]
	foo/bar=app4.desktop

global list:
	[Default Applications]
	foo/bar=app1.desktop

global applications:
	app1.desktop;app2.desktop;app3.desktop

Please describe iterations as they go by the spec.

Will the result be app2.desktop;app3.desktop;app1.desktop;app5.desktop 
with default app2.desktop?
