Usually, creating ~/.xsessionrc (on Debian only, as it's specific to
Debian) will suffice for this, as it gets read in by the X session

else, all with your desired environment. (Again, assuming X, not Wayland.)
I would verify that changes are reflected in
systemctl --user show-environment
output. XDG autostart instances, applications activated through D-Bus
may be spawned by systemd user session, not X session & window manager.
Greg, do you have ideas how to relieve pain with environment
configuration? E.g. to not override pam_environment by PATH hardcoded in
/etc/profile, to negotiate what files display managers should read, etc.
