Severity: normal

Hi there!

Both efreet and the E17 XDG menu [1] are not *fully* conform to the
freedesktop.org Desktop Menu Specification v1.0 since they do not
support all the Main Categories [2].

[1] /etc/xdg/menus/enlightenment-applications.menu
[2] http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/menu-spec-1.0.html#category-registry

- Audio and Video alone are not supported, while they are if the
  .desktop file contains the AudioVideo category as well (this is
  required by the specs, thus this is not really a bug, but still).

- For the Settings category, the specs specify that "entries may appear
  in a separate menu or as part of a 'Control Center'".

  FWIW, from a quick analysis on a default Debian lenny, I found that
  most of the application in the Settings category specify the System
  category as well, like synaptic or update-manager.

- Education and Utility are not supported at all, thus applications like
  gedit or matchbox-keyboard are not shown on the Illume desktop

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
