The new policy states these values should be synchronized on the
debian-desktop mailing list. So if in doubt, you should just ask.

The use case is different.
OnlyShowIn is for tools designed for a specific environment (e.g. a
configuration tool).
NotShowIn is for tools where the maintainers of given environments have
requested not to display such entries. If the tool is not generally
useful to most users having it installed, NoDisplay=true should be used.
OnlyShowIn and NotShowIn are mostly useful for packages that are part of
the default installation, or usually installed as dependencies.
