I guessed correctly for that part, but do all OS have either Gnome or KDE desktop?
Well, it shouldn't be INSTALLED per default, just INCLUDED in tarball.I am really not sure about coverage of using .desktop files. However, I would think that it is always matter of platform specific utilities. I have here /usr/bin/desktop-file-install which creates a system-wide menu records. I don't think it should be that difficult to create a standalone (outside of Xorg trees) similar utilities for platforms which lacks it and where maintainers would like to use it.
If not, that leaves some desktop brands without a config file. If we are ok in having desktop specific files (analogous to distro specific code), then I am fine. We could get bug reports like "it shows xcalc on my Linux box but not on my MAC, please fix it. And also fix xclock which does not show anywhere".
I don't know. It was meant more like a suggestion. Of course, it shouldn't be that difficult to add .desktop files for other applications which need it (I presented example list in my previous message).
