This one annoyed me a lot, so I've given this a closer look and found 
out why this happens:
Every desktop file that is created and placed in 
~/.local/share/applications for a custom command contains the entry 
NoDisplay=true. Such files will be hidden in thunar-1.5.0, because of 
http://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/commit/?id=159346a32e6d014267f45daed2ba7491f7b95838.
