Yeah sure. I don't really what they're intended for in the first place.
But what I suggested is to put a .desktop in /usr/share/application
which would open a link in sensible-browser with the text you linked.

Would it make sense?

I don't know for kde and gnome (but would assume the same), but for Xfce
we added  /usr/share/desktop-base/profiles to XDG_CONFIG_DIR.
