Not a ready made solution but might contribute to one: today I found 
Shortcutter <https://github.com/kiwi0fruit/shortcutter>, which was  *"created 
to solve a simple problem - if you install a python package using pip there 
is no simple way of creating a shortcut to the program it installs.".* It 
doesn't talk about icons and associations, but desktop and menu links is a 
step in the direction of not having to rely solely on distant OS package 
maintainers for system integration.

A couple of years ago a wrote leo/scripts/register-leo.leox 
<https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/blob/master/leo/scripts/register-leo.leox>
 
(and a companion unregister) to do this for Windows from inside Leo. 
((couple years ago? five! wow.))  Maybe the two can be combined in a 
platform agnostic way.
