Is there still an issue here? We've since landed code so I'm pretty sure
the tests can pass.

Title:
  Some ubuntu-ui-toolkit AP tests failing to launch - rejected by unity8
  as is using desktop_file_hint

Status in ubuntu-app-launch package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm trying to run the ubuntu-ui-toolkit autopilot tests on today's
  image.

  First off, they could cause unity8 to crash, which is bug 1578258 which can 
be resolved with
  https://code.launchpad.net/~gerboland/qtmir/ual-catch-exception/+merge/293805

  That causes unity8 to report it rejects some of the test apps the UITK
  AP test tries to launch:

  qtmir.applications: ApplicationController::createApp - UAL failed to
  create app for appId "ubuntu-ui-toolkit-gallery" : Invalid app ID:
  ubuntu-ui-toolkit-gallery

  UITK AP is launching like this:

  /usr/bin/ubuntu-ui-toolkit-launcher -testability -I  /usr/lib/modules
  /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/qt5/examples//ubuntu-ui-toolkit/examples
  /ubuntu-ui-toolkit-gallery/ubuntu-ui-toolkit-gallery.qml
  --desktop_file_hint=/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/qt5/examples/ubuntu-
  ui-toolkit/examples/ubuntu-ui-toolkit-gallery/ubuntu-ui-toolkit-
  gallery.desktop

  which is not using upstart-app-launch - which would explain the fail.
  desktop_file_hint is not a supported means of launching an app (and
  can go away at any time), so UITK should change to use UAL in its AP
  tests.

  This indeed used to work until recently, but a recent refactoring
  broke the desktop_file_hint behaviour. Since it's not a supported
  behaviour, it should not be relied on, so it would be better to fix
  UITK than restore the old behaviour.
