I've had conversations with Matthias Klumpp, the AppStream maintainer, and he's indicated that my impression is accurate (and I believe he's said the validator will get much more strict in an upcoming major version).</p></div>

<p>While there is no direct mention of a <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">.desktop</tt>, there is some description about adding a type:</p>
<blockquote style="border-left: 3px solid #a7b5bf; color: #464c5c; font-style: italic; margin: 4px 0 12px 0; padding: 4px 12px; background-color: #f8f9fc;"><p>To increase the uniqueness and to distinguish between different pieces of a software suite, it is suggested to append the type name to the component-id in these cases. For example, one can use com.hugski.ColorHug2 for the client tools to control hardware, and com.hugski.ColorHug2.firmware for the runtime firmware files.</p></blockquote>
<p>So why would you think that <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">.desktop</tt> is not the type name as mentioned there? Any chance you can point to the relevant conversations?</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R118 Plasma SDK</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D10920" rel="noreferrer">https://phabricator.kde.org/D10920</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>kossebau, sebas, mart, broulik, ngraham<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>ngraham, plasma-devel, ZrenBot, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas, apol, mart<br /></div>
