It seems that desktop-file-validate as of desktop-file-utils-0.12 in fc7
does not consider "Application" valid any more.

OK, I had promised a .desktop file guideline update/proposal, we can

In the meantime, we had previously agreed that Applications was to no
longer be used, I'll go remove it from the Guidelines (that was an
oversight).
