Bug Description

When GIO presents bamf with a .desktop file that is user readable, bamf should look for an identical .desktop file that is not user readable before accepting the user readable one.

That won't conflict with the "personal desktop file" the user has (those migrated and copied in ~)? Like, my famous example: you have foo.desktop opening totem and having a mahhjong icon. The match should still be on foo.desktop so that the icon doesn't transform in totem one once the application started until the end of the session.

No this only applies to line for line identical files
