Yes, I know Windows is different. Hence why I qualified GNOME :-) However, as far as GNOME is concerned, my understanding is that gnome-panel will use gamin or something else to monitor the directories where it expects there to be menu entries. So for the GNOME case, the only thing to be concerned about is the same application being installed three times, as far as I know.
