This patch adds support for the quicklists feature of Unity, as per the freedesktop.org "Desktop Entry Specification". With this patch, a new action is added "Open a New Window" which is very useful when konsole is used in Unity, as it allows you to create a new window without having to use menus or keyboard shortcuts. Gnome-terminal also includes similar support, and also Firefox. I basically copied the Firefox desktop entry, as it already had translations of this action for a bunch of languages. My main motivation for this is that I've always had the habit of using the best-of-breed applications on my desktop, regardless of the environment. So when I'm using KDE or Unity or XFCE I always use firefox, gajim, konsole, kate, gnote, ... This is a small extra for Unity users, and has no drawbacks for other users, so I'd love to see this upstream. Reproducible: Always

(In reply to comment #3) > Please verify this works as I don't have a way of testing. Sorry, I forgot to reply, but I can confirm it's working nicely, thanks! And thanks for committing this. I was actually sitting on it for a long time, manually adding it to all my machines because I thought it might not be acceptable upstream -- I've had some bad experiences before with small should-go-in-directly-but-are-ignored patches. Thanks!
It seems that in the latest desktop spec this has been removed https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66712 http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2013-July/012835.html desktop/konsole.desktop: key "OnlyShowIn" in group "Desktop Action NewWindow" is deprecated

But I don't think removing that key would have any issues, the rationale seems to make sense.
