What if all I want is an icon/shortcut that calls a shell script or command?
There's no "application" or "package" to open against, nor should
it be
necessary.

Surely the right solution is that the app itself should be registering in
the
menus on its own!
If the app is a Fedora package, file a bug against the package for the
missing .desktop file, which is required according to:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Desktop_files
If it is a third-party application, complain to wherever you got the
application from.
If it is your own application, have a look at xdg-desktop-menu, or package
it
as an RPM and have a look at the packaging guidelines as quoted above.
