First: We want to allow users to override system-wide settings by
user settings.

This indeed is a bit of a drama, I agree.

1. We want to provide NX-X11 to people who still use NX (e.g. FreeNX).

To provide this, we have to think generically here. Paths like ~/.nx
or /etc/nxagent/ are hard-coded in NX-X11 and nxagent and I think
that is ok. All X2Go'ish paths should be overridden via env vars or
otherwise.

In nxagent, there is some code that checks ARGV[0] (== nxagent? ==
x2goagent?) and triggers the branding of start-up screens of desktop
sessions (the gray X2GO logo).

Maybe for setting paths (esp. ~/.x2go/keystrokes.cfg), some similar
mechanism should be used?

How about this variant?

The patch looks ok. However, two things...

(1) can you re-send that patch as an attachment (not as an inline text)? (I have been struggling with extracting inline patches from mail bodies in the past with a lot of hassle on my side, so I am prophylactically asking without even having tried to apply your sent-in (inline-text) patch).

(2) I am tempted to merge that patch into patch 320. Would that be ok with you?

Mike
