very well, using its filenames rather than software names,

Foreign launchers on the desktop by default are not trusted (Due to
possible security concerns).
When launching them, you will be asked to trust them for the future (Or
you can set the trusted flag vie right-click preferences-->launcher).
Once trusted they should use the app-name and the app-icon.

FireFox & ThunderBird main entries were replaced with our custom ones
that launch specific profiles

Xfce does not automatically create/overwrite any desktop launchers for
Internet/Firefox/Thunderbird/etc.  .. no idea from where you got these.

Cheers, Alex
