I've been launching matchbox-keyboard from Personal Menu, but it still leaves me having to minimize Xterm twice afterwards each time; and I'd like also to be able to turn off matchbox-keyboard from Personal Menu, which I still don't know how to do.

I've taken out the "exec" part of my PM menu entry, as you suggested. It seems to work the same either way, actually, though I'm glad to be doing it this more correct way.
