Smoother startup

Brian,

while looking at the xfdesktop source cod, I noticed that you connect to the 
session manager very early, which causes the session manager to start the next 
app while xfdesktop is yet starting. In order to get a smoother startup, you 
should/could move the session_client stuff right after the menu_init_global() 
line. This counts for other the modules as well, connect to the session 
manager (or to be exact, send the REGISTER CLIENT) when the app is started 
(but beware of the session manager timeout :-). This should result in a 
smoother startup.
