Oh, you mean, the installer would tell the users to install the desktop
files themself, via xdg-install-icon? I don't think that works very
well.

Anyway,
<https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html>
says that /usr/local/share/applications should work fine, so there
should be no problem.

Freedesktop does not forbid anything, they couldn't even if they tried.
