Right, I'm a bit worried about tail-wagging-dog here. Please, no-one go
around throwing .desktop files in terminal apps just to try and get them
to show up in Software. Your package should have a .desktop file only if
it actually makes some sense that someone would want to launch it from a
desktop environment's menus / launcher thingy.
