Well, they're DE-specific. None of these will integrate with each other. Each DE parses the desktop file differently.
(2) If Trinity can find its menus in /opt/trinity/etc/xdg/menus, then is there any harm leaving it there to keep changes in gnome from mucking up the trinity menu?
No. But GNOME won't muck up the trinity menu... David, each category in each *.desktop file defines where it will be placed. The Trinity applications.menu doesn't care about GNOME has, and vice versa.
In theory, yes,
But my concern (Well I don't know the technical reason), anyway, I can't tell you the number of times on both Arch Linux and openSuSE I have edited my menus in Gnome only to go back into kde3 and find new entries in my kde3 menu that I just made in Gnome. That's frustrating.
Those are user changes stored in your home directory. Nothing you can do about that. D:
