Debian packages normally contain a file describing what type of
application it is (graphical, games, ...), an icon for the application,
.. Each time a debian package is installed, Debian transforms this
information using scripts into files for window managers which have use
for this.

I'm not sure if other distributions have this, nor why they don't. But
i'm sure other people will respond to this ;)
