the entry in xinitrc is there for legacy purposes, and only gets used if 
xfce4-session isn't installed.  so, conversely, commenting it out 
doesn't do anything if you're using the session manager.  you're right: 
there should be a GUI-configurable way to disable it, but... there 
isn't.  xftaskbar4 will be gone in 4.4 anyway, replaced by the new, 
more-flexible panel widget.
