Hmm... that makes sense :-)

Creating a link from the K menu is 1 way to do it and probably the best way. 
But this doesn't mean the link property dialog could be better. If a program 
has a icon in its .desktop file, why isn't the default icon (spinning wheel) 
replaced with this icon?

Some people never think of dragging a menuitem to the desktop. And some 
people can't find the appropriate icon for the specified program.

But I should not complain and instead try to make a nice patch :-)
