Marco,

the mozilla-firefox port for example adds a desktop file and places it
in /usr/local/share/applications/. Gnome, Enlightenment and probably
others use those desktop files to build menu's in the desktop
environment.
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/www/mozilla-firefox/files/firefox.desktop

So if there would be a xxxterm.desktop so xxxterm would be placed in
the correct category in the menu and if it would have a nice icon, it
would be cool. Although, I can imagine you do not really worry about
menu's. I could create a minimal desktop file, they do not really look
difficult to make, but I can't make a icon, my graphics suck...
