Gnome and KDE read what's in ~user/Desktop and display it on the screen, so you can just drop your binary there. I would think that the other popular managers will do the same.
CDE, on the other hand, is going to require editing the tool bar schema.

3. UNIX Desktop Questions & Answers
Hello,
Is there a way to force each window to popup in the original desktop when using multiple desktops?
The problem is I work on one desktop, then move to another one, and some windows that are loaded in the original desktop pops at the new desktop.
Any idea?
Thanks!

SYSTEM-CONFIG-PRIN(1) Man pages SYSTEM-CONFIG-PRIN(1)
NAME
system-config-printer-applet - print job manager
SYNOPSIS
system-config-printer-applet [--no-tray-icon]
DESCRIPTION
system-config-printer-applet is a print job manager for CUPS. Normally it will display a printer icon in the notification area, greyed out
when there are no print jobs for the current user. Clicking on the icon displays a simple print job manager for cancelling or reprinting
jobs.
To save memory, the applet waits first of all until the user has printed a job before putting the icon in the notification area. To invoke
the print job manager before a job has been printed, run the applet with the --no-tray-icon option: a desktop file is provided for this, so
that it should appear in the system menu.
As well as displaying a printer icon in the notification area, the applet also provides a D-BUS server for the
com.redhat.PrintDriverSelection interface, to help configure a new printer when it is plugged in.
OPTIONS
--help
Display a short usage message.
--version
Display the version of the applet.
--no-tray-icon
Do not display an icon in the notification area. Quit when the job manager window is closed.
