This bring us back to the discussion of "marketing names" versus codenames.

The neophyte will only known the marketing name & the more advance
will know both.

On KDE4, the omnixbox does the right thing & typing "<Alt-F2> nerve <enter>" immedialty starts the game;
I don't know for other WM, maybe adding some keywords to the .desktop file would be a good start.

I can't tell, G-D-P would choose a file at random; but dpkg -i will only overwrite 
/usr/share/games/doom/doom2.wad .

If you want to build a .deb with a precise .wad, you need to use --no-search
and specify the full path of this .wad .
For me /usr is "dpkg's territory" and non-packaged stuff should go in /usr/local
