Recently Trinity was given a nominal public review in a blog:
http://anarchic-order.blogspot.com/2014/02/installing-trinity- desktop-environment.html
The author offered a caveat:
"The Trinity-DE applications are only available through the Trinity- DE desktop. While all the other applications installed on your system show up in the TDE menus, because of the way Trinity-DE loads its menus, if you log in with Xfce, the Trinity-DE applications will not be seen."
Most Trinity *.desktop files use OnlyShowIn=TDE, which causes the author's observations.
Should users of other environments (many window managers support a menu system too) be prevented from using Trinity apps? Probably not. The original motivation for using OnlyShowIn=TDE is conflicts and confusion in the Trinity and KDE menus because many apps share the same name. Perhaps NotShowIn=KDE is more apprpriate than OnlyShowIn=TDE?
I believe we should resolve this before releasing R14.
