Are multiple versions of an application going to be
allowed with the package manager? If so you have a
similar problem to deal with.

Deskbar could do just as good a job at providing
differentiation in the presentation of available
applications as could a package manager. And it 
could do it for all entries, regardless if they're
known to to the package manager or not.

What's more, category attributes would be available
to other applications, menus and launchers and would
be more useful to them than a collection of symlinks
in ~/config/be.
