Hi Luca,
Sorry for delaying this, this will be uploaded with the new upstream snapshot

I think it's fine, except this part:

>         <Include><And><Category>System</Category>
>                       <Not><Category>Settings</Category></Not></And>

You're explicitely excluding .desktops being in both Settings and System. This
is unfortunate, as on my machine, at least synaptic.desktop,
polkit-gnome-authorization.desktop and gparted.desktop are among them, and if
I was actually using a menu, I would miss them.
I think I'd better keep Settings and Administration from the previous menu
instead. (FYI, gnome splits 'settings and not system' in 'settings', and
'settings and system' in 'administration', that's why I'm currently doing so.
There's a use case for it)
Any suggestion ?

Regards,
