More info on the xfce4-session bug.

(Would someone be kind enough to file it, since I have been unable to do
so myself?)

I closed down each group of windows, methodically attempting to save
session/shutdown each time. The error recurred every time.

Even after closing all open application windows, the session error
recurred. I was effectively unable to shutdown the machine and had to
switch it off at the wall.

Some notable details:

Firefox would not close manually because it had an active download that
had got stuck. It would close after cancelling the broken download. But
the session would still not save.

Recoll had crashed. Forcing quit made no difference to the session
error.

It was largely impossible to open new programs, even after all open
programs had been closed and the desktop was clear.

These programs would not start: gedit, firefox, terminal, catfish,
search, Recoll

These programs would start: session & startup, screenshot, volume
control.

As you  can see, I was forced to switch off at wall.
