Excellent.  Too often I see people catting /dev/urandom into files and 
then committing the result!

Note, though, that getting SVN access isn't a license to commit 
anywhere.  Most (well, maybe about half) of the modules are owned by 
someone, and we have a policy of not committing non-trivial patches to 
other people's modules without asking first.

That's more patches right there than your average Xfce contributor 
submits...

I'm ok with this, but we'll need to discuss it among the other core 
devs.  Would you mind popping into #xfce-dev so we can get to know you a 
bit?  Just PM one of us and ask for voice.
