I'm a tad concerned you would be adding a commonplace but entirely
separate method for opening a terminal session that would make
nautilus-open-terminal even more obscure than it already is.

I'd rather see nautilus-open-terminal extended to add the desktop icon
(and eventually, the panel launcher) too, so that the desktop support
for opening terminal sessions is consistent in implementation, and
documented in as few places as possible.
