In any event, the program starts in a terminal environment, but ultimately must be run in an x11 environment.
What does it need the terminal for? I mean if it actually runs in its own X11 window, what does it use the terminal for?
Anyway:The menu entry with "needs=text" is, by the description you quoted, exactly what you are looking for. The description explizitly talks about the X server starting an X terminal emulator, so what do you worry about?
