Bug Description
If you want to add a new menu item to your applications menu, you have to click edit menu, then click 'new item'. The dialog box that comes up has 3 options, 'Application', 'Application in Terminal' and 'Location'. It should have a 'Laucher' option. This should have a single option, the filename of the .desktop file to use.
You can drag applications from the menus to the desktop, which creates a launcher, but you can't easily go the other way.
The use case for this is if some software installs a launcher to the desktop and not to the menu, and the user wants that application on the menu.
