Now that epiphany just crashed on me, I can say that this option does not work
for me. It would probably work if in addition the program would set its own name
to 'epiphany-browser', instead of 'epiphany' as it does now.

So in conclusion, either the desktop file, the executable or script and the
internally set name should all be 'epiphany', or they should all be
'epiphany-browser'. That should also keep Gnome 3 happy.

Does that mean there's a conflict when you install that game, or will plain
'epiphany' always launch the browser?
