--- Comment #8 from Simon McVittie <simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk> ---
Please don't put my name on a commit unless I actually sent you a patch.

DBusActivatable=true is meaningless (unsupported) in systemd .service files,
and also meaningless in D-Bus .service files. It's only applicable to .desktop
files, where it's described by the fd.o Desktop Entry specification:

https://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#dbus

You can only put DBusActivatable=true in a .desktop file if the executable that
you're launching supports the D-Bus API described in that specification.
GApplication/GtkApplication is frequently used to implement the DBusActivatable
API in GTK/GNOME-derived apps, and would probably also be suitable for XFCE, if
XFCE still uses GTK (it's a while since I used XFCE myself, so I've lost
track).
