I don't follow the reason for closing this... It seems like maybe you're thinking I said this bug is all wrong, but it's not. The point is that instead of *sourcing* $HOME/.xsession, the Xsession system script should *exec* it if it exists, completely bypassing the rest of the system Xsession script. The debian manual I linked to actually describes that behavior. The point is, Ubuntu appears to ignore it entirely.
