Title:
  click hook tries to use ${id} in Exec

Status in Upstart Application Launcher:
  New
Status in “upstart-app-launch” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  upstart-app-launch's click hook tries to use the app ID in Exec,
  passing it as ${id}.  However, ${id} is not substituted in Exec.

  As it turns out, desktop-hook doesn't actually use this; indeed it
  exits with an error if it's passed any arguments.  You get away with
  this because Exec is passed through the shell and the shell expands
  ${id} to the empty string; but you shouldn't rely on this.
