No. In the AppStream and AppData definitions, a program is an
application if "it has a .desktop file that is visible in the menu".
i.e. not NoDisplay=true and that has at least one valid category.

How is the user then supposed to find gcc, find, or similar programs/rpm-packages if these does not show up in 'software center'? Or am I missing something obvious here?

How does 'application' correlates to a rpm-package?
