Does it apply to VMs restored from backup? It should be fixed after you
update template of those VMs.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

yes, and ones that were not (like sys-firewall). seems like a quite arbitrary collection of apps with no clear pattern.

I can also confirm in my case that Appmenus for fedora 23-based AppVMs also populate the menu.

The root cause was fixed by QubesOS/qubes-core-admin-linux@7080c03

To fix existing VMs, perform:

Dom0$ for x in /var/lib/qubes/appvms/*/apps.templates/qubes-start.desktop; do \
>   cp -v /usr/share/qubes-appmenus/qubes-start.desktop "$x"; \
> done

and qvm-sync-appmenus (or add/remove a shortcut from the qubes-manager gui) for the affected VM(s).

I think this issue can be closed now.
