It is absurd that you shouldn't put X-Chat or lupus into Name=

Likewise, it is absurd if these fields are not handled like they should.

On my FC2t3+updates, I have the following info on Evolution:

Name=Evolution Email
GenericName=
Comment=Send email and manage your schedule

Shouldn't this be:
Name=Evolution
GenericName=Email
Comment=Send email and manage your schedule

???

It should. And it should display something debatable like:

   Name GenericName
   Comment

But if fields have names, then these names have meanings, right? :)
The meanings should be respected, and fix the software if needed, but
don't invert the meanings on account of software bugs as if that is the
solution. Fix the bugs.
