Hi!
I'm developing a series of application for Linux. As a finishing touch, I like to add entries to the menu so users may start the applicacions without having to remember their precise names.
My applications fall clearly in the "Science" category. So, I prepare .desktop files like the one below:
[Desktop Entry] Name=purge_overlaps Comment=Purge overlapping ADAs Exec=/usr/local/bin/purge_overlaps Icon=/usr/share/adatools/purge_overlaps.png Terminal=false Categories=Science; Type=Application
Well, it seems that the Cinnamon menu does not support this standard category and my apps appear under the "Other" category.
Should't this be corrected? As far as I know, "Science" is one of the standard menu entries:

Thanks!
