Bug Description
When you try to pick an icon for your custom item menu in Alacarte, it forgets to put .png or .svg in Desktop Entry file name, so in Unity or others menus the item menu icon does not appear.
Example: Try to create an Nvidia Settings item menu (after install bumblebee)
1. Open Alacarte
2. Click in "System Settings" and click in "New Item"
3. Name: "Nvidia Settings", Command: "optirun -b none nvidia-settings -c :8", and Icon: /usr/share/
4. Try to find in Unity, there is the entry, but no icon
5. Open ~/.local/
6. Then in the Icon Entry: Icon=/usr/
So, if I change Icon Entry to Icon=/usr/
I has this problem with Scilab too, or any other that I need to pick an icon for item menu.
