To be honest, I don't really care, I just think the current situation is
suboptimal for everyone, and people just have to get used to it until
someone comes with a solution which everyone like. 

You should still be able to override what's provided (wether manually
by copying the desktop file to .local/share/applications and editing it,
or through some graphical app like alacarte).
