Beyond that: the vast majority of applications available for Fedora will
not be installed by default - it's not much of a carrot to tell an upstream
application author that they need to conform the basedir standard to be
included by default, when they *won't* be installed by default.


Fair enough.  How about treating it as a recommendation that we would like
applications to follow?

Open concrete bug for concrete issues (description Firefox is not xdg
compliant tells me nothing) and ideally submit your patches. That's the way how it can be fixed.
