Was there any discussion about including keywords such as Word, Excel
and Powerpoint?

Unfortunately, many users seem to be used to the Microsoft jargon.
So one may search for Excel when wanting to use a spreadsheet.

In fact, Word is not necessary because it is already in the
"GenericName" entry (as "Word Processor"), so Writer will appear if one
search for "Word".

The problem remains for Excel and PowerPoint.
However, "excel" is a common noun, so adding it should be fine.
And for PowerPoint, why not adding "point" and "power" (in this order if you 
prefer) ? These are both common nouns and users should just have to type the 
firsts letters (such as "pow") before finding Impress, so it should be enough.

What do you think?
