I'd love a better alternative, but this is the best I've come up
with.

Of course, it needn't be the actual VR client, it could be a stub
application that popped open a 'which app would you like to run on the
HMD' chooser of some kind, or even hooks in the desktop system that
managed that.

Suggestions very much encouraged.
