--- Comment #13 from Olivier Fourdan <fourdan at xfce.org> ---
Right. I think something is weird.

The theme worked previously because xfsettingsd was started much later after
the other clients, so the change in theme was caught like a regular theme
change.

Now we start xfsettingsd earlier (for bug 15485) but then other clients start
more or less simultaneously and miss the theme change.

I think the whole thing worked “by chance”... Another possibility would be to
start xfsettingsd much later - But ether way, the design seems quite fragile
and it's hard to make sure we'll avoid the race condition.

With the current patches, xfsettingsd is started with prio 0 (highest) and
xfwm4 is started with a lower priority of 15.

Yet, adding logs, we clearly see that xfwm4 is started first...

xfwm4-Message: 11:14:04.964: xfwm4 starting
xfsettingsd-Message: 11:14:05.468: on_name_acquired: Startup done

So are priorities honored at all by xfce4-session?
