This works nicely for me, as I

the plumber is still running and doesn't start it.  Unfortunately, that
running plumber doesn't seem to be work right because when I click on a
URL in acme it doesn't get opened in my web browser.  I have to kill and
restart the plumber to get this to work.

I haven't been able to figure what is actually going wrong.  Any hints
or suggestions would be gratefully accepted.

I have a few programs that need to be stopped when I log out, that aren't stopped automatically (ssh-agent, plumber). I use KDE, so to do this, I have a set of shutdown scripts that kill these processes on logout and start them on login. Your window manager may have something similar for you to use.
