LXDE is dead upstream (has been replaced by LXQt). So I'm not convinced
it makes sense to add this for LXDE now.

I wonder if it would make sense to drop
debian/patches/01_onlyshowin.patch completely.

This patch was added as other desktop environments usually install their
own preferred terminal, in case of lxde this is lxterminal.

Having multiple terminals in the menu could be confusing.
