It's not only the "green" applications that make the cut, the amber
ones go in too. Having keywords makes the search functionality much
better, but isn't actually required for your application to be shown
in the software center. It would be disingenuous at best to show OK
and use a green line when we're missing this extra data. I'll probably
start nagging people about missing keywords in F23, i.e. real soon
now.

I guess we should make desktop-file-validate check for keywords too,
although they're not actually *required* to be a valid .desktop file.
