I'd also fix bug #160414 but I don't know anything about update-desktop-database and couldn't find much information about it neither, so I'll better leave it for someone else...

Thank you for your work on that. Do you consider desktop-file-validate being used often enough to require this completion thing? The number of items to load is likely impacting on the speed and completion should be limited to programs where it makes sense

I'll upload the change as discussed, one package is not going to do a real difference and looks like it's useful for the reviewers, etc. Could you send the changes to debian though?

Thanks. If you later decide otherwise I've no problem with the bash completion being "descended" into the examples folder... ;).

I've just forwarded the debdiff to Debian, I'll post the bug number once I get it.
