Hi, I am sorry for the later reply.
What if the System Settings imported the application name only, saving it and a
generic shortcut for it (as the app's internal functions are not known, the
shortcut would be assumed to be a "launch application" shortcut.) When the
importer function verified that the application is unknown or not installed
(e.g., by looking for its .desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications or
/usr/share/applications,) it would mark the shortcut as such and put a generic
icon on it (like that blank paper icon.) Then, when the user tries to activate
that shortcut, the shortcut server (khotkeys?) would just print an error
message dialog in the likes of "There's no application to handle this shortcut:
<name> is not installed." and the "OK" | "Install" buttons under it (the second
one opens Discover.)

Now, isn't that possible? what do you think of my idea? maybe someone (like
myself... Or you) could contribute some C++ code for this change.
