why not:

ltsp-localapps --wait icewm-session ??

i had implemented the code to handle --wait for exactly this purpose.

oh, i did need to implement some other hack to keep it running server-side as
well...  still, using --wait is probably a good idea. it prevents additional
localapps from getting started up, which should just be handled by the locally
running session. i suppose --wait could do xatom queries until some
flag was set to handle xsession exit...

live well,
