Summary: export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP to the current session
Classification: Xfce
Product: Xfce4-session

Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW

Hi,
a Debian user reported [1] that Qt5 was using the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable
to tune its behavior.
I managed to dig an old thread from freedesktop.org about this [2] with Nick
participation. It seems that the idea was to have the DM export this, but
apparently the discussion ended without a consensus.
LightDM (and GDM, maybe) apparently sets this if it finds the (proprietary)
X-LightDM-DesktopName key in the session .desktop file, so it might be worth
adding it to the xfce4-session .desktop file.
But not all DMs are using this, I guess, so having it set in xfce4-session
xinitrc might be worth too.
