I don't and I will redirect mails from you to /dev/null in the future if you 
continue to hijack this thread and continue to change the CC.

This is a valid concern I think, although your situation is somewhat special - 
most users more or less stick to one desktop environment and have the odd 
application from some other DE installed.

I could put in a check for a NO_XDG environment variable that would disable 
the setting of the XDG_* env-vars completely and thus restore previous 
behaviour - would that work for you?

Those will need to be fixed individually (if the icon path is wrong or there 
are .desktop files left behind). KDE will take care of removing menu entries 
from the menu if the .desktop file is gone automatically.

Well, we already have that situation right now - and kde-xdg-env fixes it to 
some degree. The menus will of course look somewhat different - just like the 
DEs themselves do. I don't regard that as a problem however.

I won't comment on all of this since it's way beyond the scope of this thread.
