Well read http://members.home.nl/jbhuijsmans/xfce4-cvs.html. Thats our
official documentation for now. :-)

If prefer to quit with the panel (as I do) all you have to do is put
xfce4 at the bottom of your .xinitrc. Here is mine:

#!/bin/sh

# Launch xscreensaver (if available)
xscreensaver -no-splash &

# Finally, launch XFce window manager
xfce-mcs-manager 
xfdeskmenu &
xfwm4 --daemon

# Comment if you don't use rox
rox -p Default &

exec xfce4-panel

I agree completely. Since we are still in development mode, we still
haven't come up with a good default setup yet. I believe the current
xfce-panel default setup is just Jasper's own setup.
