Dbus session daemon and remote DISPLAY

Hi,

I'd add to Thiago's response that IMO something about the setup is 
always broken if you have autolaunch of the daemon occurring. That is, 
when each user logs in, a session daemon should be started at that time 
and DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS set; and then you have only the one session 
daemon for their login session.

There may be things that make this hard to accomplish in a given 
configuration, but for things to be not broken it's essentially required 
for us to figure out a way to do it. The autolaunch is just a fallback hack.
