[Bug 1521773] [NEW] mediaplayer app is detected as legacy app

 

Public bug reported:

The mediaplayer app doesn't have the key "X-Ubuntu-Touch=true" in its
.desktop file. That causes unity8 to recognize it as legacy app and it
will trigger a warning message when it's running while leaving windowed
mode. Soon unity8 will also prevent running legacy apps in staged mode.

We either need to implement a proper way to allow hiding things from the
apps scope or figure something else to determine if an app is supporting
the Ubuntu touch life cycle.
