Sorry to interrupt your speculations about a gnuplot menu-entry but
it's been in the package for ages (about 1997)... Yes, opening a xterm
with the gnuplot commandline inside is a bit strange but nobody ever
complained and at least it can be found that way.
IMHO the menu is more a way of showing the user which programs are
installed on the machine, thus the entry makes (at least a bit of)
sense.
