Is this how GNOME works?  I'm pretty sure that it's not how KDE
or Motif works.  Are you proposing the building of _another_ desktop
infrastructure?

Besides, none of the executables in the standard FreeBSD
distribution do anything without arguments anyway, so you're
really only talking about X applications, aren't you?  Even on
Windows, the command-line tools don't get their own icon.
