    .desktop files are not really supported any more as things to see or
click on. I guess I didn't realize that, since there is still an installable extension for turning them on and off.

Which extension is that?

    They are intended to be started through the Gnome interface.
    Put them in "~/.local/share/applications" and they will show up in the
    overview with everything else.

Thanks for that piece of information. That mostly works. It took me a few minutes to find them under Applications -> Other, but they are there and the icon images are there as well. It will take me a while to get used to where they are located now, but I suppose I will eventually get used to it.

I'm assuming you're using Gnome Shell, so from the overview you can type the name or possibly keywords of the app to select it.
