Konqueror is definitely in the menu!
As for xterm, if it isn't listed in the menu, that's a bug in the xterm
package, please file a bug in Bugzilla, all GUI programs are supposed to be
registered in the menus! (But why don't you just use Konsole?)

Try right-click and "Add to panel".

Kickoff is the new-style menu, the classic menu is the old-style one. You can
switch from one to the other with a right-click on the Fedora logo (or the KDE
logo, depending on your icon theme) which opens the menu (there's a "switch to
Kickoff/Classic menu style" entry in the context menu). The classic menu
doesn't have many secrets (it's simple and straightforward), for Kickoff there
might be a screencast somewhere, but it's designed to be intuitive.
