Basicly, that's it. Even if I don't understand what monolithic file you
are talking about.

For example, I imagine we could have desktop files like that:


;; --- file zipfs.desktop ---

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.1
Name=ZIPfs
Comment=Mount a ZIP archive
GenericName=ZIP Filesystem
Type=Fuse local filesystem
Exec=zipfs %f %M
Icon=zipfs
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
Categories=Filesystem;
MimeType=application/zip


;; --- file isofs.desktop ---

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.1
Type=Fuse local filesystem
Exec=isofs %f %M
MimeType=application/x-iso9660
...


;; --- file ftpfs.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.1
Type=Fuse network filesystem
Exec=ftpfs %u %M
Regexp=^ftp://.*
...


See http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-entry-spec for the basic specification
