Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Steps to reproduce.
Right click on panel -> add to panel -> add a starter 'as copy from the 
applications menu'.
e.g. Firefox, Gedit
Afterwards you'll find .desktop file in ~/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/launchers 
with permission 755.
While all other .desktop files in ~/.config/autostart or 
~/.local/share/applications are 644.

If you change the .desktop file in ~/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/launchers
to 644, e.g. by removing the executive bit, applications still run as
usual.

Expected: 
Adding a launcher to panel shouldn't add an executive bit automatically if it 
isn't necessary and as long as a user doesn't actively choose so.
