Okay, I understand this, but if I run GNOME, but want to install the KDE
Calculator, I want it to show up in the menu.

I would much rather have some way of tagging a desktop file like this:

DesignedFor=KDE

Then, being able to set a custom configuration variable in the GNOME/KDE
menu configuration tools that allows a blanket show/hide for things with
that don't match my DesignedFor (along with allowing me to specifically
check the box to let k3b override, because it is so much nicer than the
GNOME burning program).
