   The thing with .desktop files (which is what those icons represent) is   
   that they can invoke arbitrary commands when selected. So they are not   
   just simple links to particular executables, that can be autoremoved   
   by a simple find-dangling-references search.   
      
   Systemwide .desktop files can of course be removed as part of the   
   package which installed them. The same is not true of user-created   
   ones.
