This is a known issue with both Factory and 11.3. xfce4-settings-manager displays entries based on the presence of a X-XFCE category in .desktop files, unfortunately openSUSE's update-desktop-files script unconditionally strips desktop files from all categories it does not know about and I just recently modified it to preserve X-Xfce* and X-XFCE* categories (in fact so recently that the change is not contained in the last Factory snapshot build target). A workaround is to manually add the X-XFCE category to the .desktop files (either globally in /usr/share/applications or per-user in ~/.local/share/applications), you just need to append "X-XFCE;" to the line starting with "Categories=". BTW, I'd really appreciate feedback and testing of X11:xfce on Factory and 11.4 RC1 when it's out.
