To expound: My understanding is that qvm-sync-appmenus automatically
overwrites manual config for AppVM shortcuts in that menu, but not the
whole menu. This is why I suspect the Xfce4 docs are your best bet for
an entry for a custom dom0 shortcut/script, but Marek may be able to
shed more light on this.

Also, if it turns out that what you really want is a custom AppVM
shortcut, take a look here:

https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/managing-appvm-shortcuts/

(Note: This page hasn't been updated in a while, but there are recent
threads on the MLs about this, so try some searching.)
