"Software type" is defined at [2], and the criteria from [2] and [3] use
the same phrasing. (See my original mail for link references). I'm not
opposed to changing all occurrences of this, if we have a better term :-)

Both GNOME Software and KDE Discover provide that functionality. I think
the idea is that you hit Install, and then you hit Launch/Open, instead of
searching for the new launcher in your system menu. It's good for trying

If the button is there, it should work, in my opinion.
