I did, but I dealt with it from a downstream distro packager's
perspective. I install both an icon and a desktop file from the debian
dir. The desktop file gets installed to /usr/share/applications while
the icon is installed to /usr/share/pixmaps.

The icon that I install was simply created by converting a png grabbed
from Bzr-Explorer's webpage branding. As it is in /debian it needs to
be something that can be represented in the diff.gz so I converted it
to an xpm. The file is attached to this email.

I made some small changes to the desktop file. For the Comment field,
the Desktop Entry Specification states that: "The value should not be
redundant with the values of Name and GenericName." So I dropped the
"Bazaar Explorer." Also the Version field should refer to the "version
of the Desktop Entry Specification that the desktop entry conforms
with. Entries that confirm with this version of the specification
should use 1.0."

When I get a chance to take a closer look, I hope to provide a patch
for trunk to properly translate and install the desktop file and an
icon.
