Relative `Path=` entries in .desktop files

Hi everyone,

What happens if the Path= line of a *.desktop file is set to a
relative path? For example:

Path=mydir

Or:

Path=.

We at the AppImage
project are wanting to use relative paths in *.desktop
files to refer to locations relative to the root of the
application mount point. Please see this
github issue for details.

What do you guys think? Would this
create some kind of conflict with existing path rules?

Cheers,

Stuart.
