Sorry, i still don't get it. What session?
For an X Session (which is the scope of this use case), the client_id as
chosen by the X Session Manager.
- See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_session_manager and
ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.0/doc/PDF/xsmp.pdf
That said, it should be general enough to cover any service that wants
to provide a session management capability.
We're working at a lower level than X session management though, aren't
we? While you can layer X session management on top of the lower-level
stuff, for better or worse the XDG runtime stuff works for all login
types, not just X. So it needs to work for console logins, SSH, su/sudo
etc. via PAM.
