[Usability] New launcher edition dialog



Hi,

For... a really long time, we have a bug about simplifying the new
launcher dialog :
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95331

I coded a new dialog to be put in gnome-desktop (or maybe
gnome-menus...). You can see screenshots in the bug. Please ignore the
english/french mix in the strings ;-)

Quick links:

Editing an application launcher to be launched in a terminal:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=62149
(there's still a lot of people out there adding launchers for terminal
application, so I don't believe we should remove this)

Editing a link launcher:

I'd like some feedback on this. Is it totally wrong? (I hope not ;-)) Is
there some things to improve? Do you agree we should go ahead and use
this in 2.15?

Thanks,

Vincent
