I won't switch the dependencies, but I'll drop the dependency on
x-terminal-emulator altogether. It's used only for a menu item, and I
think that having raw Tk shell in the user menu is not necessary. In
extremely rare cases when a user wants to start the shell manually,
they can just execute `wish' in a terminal window.

Cheers!
