Unfortunately, desktop-file-validate and desktop-file-install don't like Xfce
desktop files, i.e. they report errors although the file variants conform the
.desktop file specification. Thus, rpmbuild would fail spuriously if
desktop-file-FOO were called. 
Additionally, xfce4-wmdock-plugin isn't a GUI application. Therefore it doesn't
provide a "valid" .desktop file in %{_datadir}/applications/ and doesn't create
a menu entry. I think the Xfce desktop files must be handled differently
compared to those of GUI apps. After having a quick look at several specs of
other Xfce plugins, this seems to be the common practice.
