Comment (by axeld):

 For items where the "install-into-deskbar" attribute is set, it could be
 arguably done via archiving, however, that's not how it works. Instead,
 the Deskbar will load those apps as add-on, and call
 instantiate_deskbar_entry() on them - there is no archiving involved in
 this case.

 Therefore, to prevent downloaded software automatically being launched and
 added to the Deskbar, the security code has been added.

 Since we break compatibility with the switch to GCC4 anyway, I guess we
 could clean up that as well at that point, but I see no way to get rid of
 it before :-)
