Mark, the owning team will be Desktop. I have updated the bug
description accordingly.

** Description changed:

  [Availability]
  The package xdg-terminal-exec is already in Ubuntu universe.
  The package xdg-terminal-exec build for the architectures it is designed to 
work on.
  It currently builds and works for architectures: "all"
  Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-terminal-exec
  
  [Rationale]
  - The package xdg-terminal-exec is required in Ubuntu
    main for compliance with the emerging XDG specification,
    
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/terminal-wg/specifications/-/merge_requests/3.
  - The package xdg-terminal-exec will generally be useful for a large part of
    our user base
  - Package xdg-terminal-exec covers the same use case as x-terminal-emulator,
    but is better because it allows setting the default terminal for a 
particular
    user (instead of system-wide), and xdg-terminal-exec ought to be configured
    to be the terminal used for .desktop files that set Terminal=true too,
    thereby we want to replace it.
  - There is no other/better way to solve this that is already in main or
    should go universe->main instead of this.
  - The binary package xdg-terminal-exec needs to be in main to ensure full
    and committed support for such a central piece for the Ubuntu desktop
  
  - It would be great and useful to community/processes to have the
    package xdg-terminal-exec in Ubuntu main, but there is no definitive 
deadline.
  
  [Security]
  - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past
  - No `suid` or `sgid` binaries
  - No executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
  - Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
  - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
  - Package does not expose any external endpoints
  - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
    (filters, scanners, plugins, UI skins, ...)
  
  [Quality assurance - function/usage]
  - The package works well right after install
  
  [Quality assurance - maintenance]
  - The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does
    not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs
    - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-terminal-exec/+bug
    - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=xdg-terminal-exec
    - Upstream's bug tracker, e.g., GitHub Issues
      https://github.com/Vladimir-csp/xdg-terminal-exec/issues
  - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
  
  [Quality assurance - testing]
  - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails
    it makes the build fail, link to build log[1].
  
  - The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on
    all Ubuntu architectures, link to test logs[2]
  
  - The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now
  
  [Quality assurance - packaging]
  - debian/watch is present and works
  
  - debian/control defines a correct Maintainer field
  
  - This package does not yield massive lintian Warnings, Errors
    Please link to a recent build log of the package[1]
  - Please attach the full output you have got from
     `lintian --pedantic` as an extra post to this bug.
  - Lintian overrides are not present
  
  - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
  - This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies
  
  - The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf
    questions higher than medium
  
  - Packaging and build is easy, link to debian/rules[3]
  
  [UI standards]
  - Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation)
  
  - End-user applications without desktop file, not needed because not a
  desktop application.
  
  [Dependencies]
  
  - No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main
  
  [Standards compliance]
  - This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy
  
  [Maintenance/Owner]
- - I suggest the owning team to be the desktop team
- - The future owning team is not yet subscribed, but will subscribe to
-   the package before promotion
+ The owning team will be Ubuntu Desktop (~desktop-packages) and I have their 
acknowledgement for that commitment
+ - The future owning team is not yet subscribed, but will subscribe to the 
package before promotion
  
  - This does not use static builds
  
  - This does not use vendored code
  
  - This package is not rust based
  
  - The package was rebuilt in Launchpad recently[1].
