According to
http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/1.1/ar01s05.html
it's something more complicated:
``If true, it is KNOWN that the application will send a "remove" message
when started with the DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID environment variable set. If
false, it is KNOWN that the application does not work with startup
notification at all (does not shown any window, breaks even when using
StartupWMClass, etc.). If absent, a reasonable handling is up to
implementations (assuming false, using StartupWMClass, etc.).''
and I assume it requires some support from the application. Actually it
looks like this shouldn't be mandatory in DESKTOP_ENTRIES.
