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).
  
  
  While there is no direct mention of a `.desktop`, there is some description about adding a type:
  
  > 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.
  
  So why would you think that `.desktop` is not the type name as mentioned there? Any chance you can point to the relevant conversations?
