Move to trash will do

Of course not. Each .app file contains a full tree of files required for
running the application. However, most programs installed via a
Unix-like way are installed at different positions and are being run
from the command line (like X11). Since the "list of application" is
nothing else than a directory containing files and folders, only those
things will appear there which you actually put there (or are installed
there from a pkg).

By the way, command-line stuff like latex, gzip usw. is also not in the
/Applications folder but typically within /usr or (if installed via
Fink) /sw.
