Yay :) Thanks for keeping trying.

Reasons are that for one, the appdata file is optional by the appimage spec, so one needs a fallback. Then other appimage handling tools also give the data from the desktop file a priority over the data from the appdata file (the desktop file being the older metadata container in the history of the spec, so also sometimes completely ignored), so for consistency I followed that priority handling for data from the desktop file.
