How this is simple? Can a normal user do it? Can most of people remember what attributes to set in desktop files without taking reference from internet or other desktop files. While other OS makes it easy to do by single few clicks. The point is, get out of your own perspective, because you are comfortable with these tricks. Think from normal users perspective if you are making something that will be used globally.
I can create shortcuts without much pain, still I would prefer to use UI which can make task easier for me. _______________________________________________
