Bug Description

[Impact]
Under unity, gufw is displayed under 'other' in system settings. However under gnome-shell and gnome-classic it is not displayed at all. So the only way to launch it is from the command line.

[TESTCASE]
1. Under gnome-shell goto system settings
2. firewall is not displayed

[Regression Potential]
None. Just updating the desktop file so it can display in GNOME.

Why not just drop the OnlyShowIn: line? Unless a program actually conflicts with another program or is desktop-specific (such as gcalctool or kcalc), I think the OnlyShowIn line is just annoying.
