thats what i meant: it's cool because it looks a lot like the freedesktop-standard. but: there has to be a reason why they didn't use the real freedesktop-property in the first place. maybe you can only use one X-Maemo-Category (which would make sense in the context of such a device) whereas the regular freedesktop-property "categories" is designed to accept a list of items. is that it? is X-Maemo-Category restricted to one value?
