  That reasoning makes sense. Currently AppImages get the generic `application-x-executable` which isn't great:

  The document motif isn't really accurate here, but it's also used by other executables such as Java apps:

  We have two options here:
  
  1. Follow the style and make the AppImage icon look like a document with a folded-over corner that has an the AppImage logo  in the middle
  2. Engage #VDG <https://phabricator.kde.org/tag/vdg/> and Come up a new icon style for executables, and then make the AppImage icon in that new style
  
  Either way, I think we're going to do #2 and define a new style for executable apps: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=401299. Feel free to do #1 for now if you'd rather not wait for the outcome of that. Or wait if you'd like, which is fine too!
