I was about to point that out, then did a few tests which reminded me
the descriptions are usually pretty fracking useless...

'rip' does not get you Sound Juicer
'burn' does not get you Brasero
'sound' does not get you Audacity (but somehow, it *does* get you
Brasero?)
'audio' gets you Audacity, but not Rhythmbox (you have to hit 'music'
for that)
'video' does not get you Totem

so, yeah, it's not great =)
