flatpak doesn't set XDG_DATA_DIRS

It seems flatpak doesn't update XDG_DATA_DIRS, so installed applications doesn't show in the desktop and have to be started manually using `flatpak run ...`. Should the package set this? If not, what's the best practice in setting this?

       Note that the directories

       '/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share'
       '/home/simendsjo/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share'

are not in the search path set by the XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable, so applications installed by Flatpak may not appear on your desktop until the
       session is restarted.
