xdg describes the category as "Small utility application." I don't think this really fits the description of Player. While System Tools isn't great, it's the closest fit I think.
The category hasn't really been removed from Ubuntu. All the programs that were under that category were simply hidden from the default install (eg gconf-editor). Since Player isn't installed by default, I think it's ok to use this category. ** Changed in: vmware-player (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => VMware Build Team Status: Confirmed => Rejected -- vmware-player has wrong menu entry in Gnome https://launchpad.net/bugs/53521 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
