There is. Menumaker only finds the programs it knows about and puts them
in some predefoined location. The gnome/kde menus use (should use/are
going to use) a standard defined on freedesktop.org. Following the
standard allows the user to edit his menu in gnome/kde/xfce and get the
same menu everywhere.
