Description Mantas Kriaučiūnas 2004-08-16 20:23:59 UTC 
There should be an ability to add some launchers from the desktop (or any
other place, for example gnome-panel) to the panel's Actions menu.

In other words - Actions menu should support .desktop file format like
Applications menu.

It would be a very useful feature, users want to have an ability to customize
the Actions menu, there are several bugreports about this already ( for example
#98222 , bug #94120 and bug #105638 )

Also now it's an usability problem, because Actions menu behaves differently
than Applications menu, but users expect same behaviour.

It seems bug #72598 is related to this bug.
Comment 2 Mark McLoughlin 2004-08-17 09:00:42 UTC 
The only thing in this bug report above and beyond what's in bug #94120 is the
suggestion that we should use .desktop files for the Action's menu. Please just
add a comment to that effect in bug #94120
