Agreed. The whole xsession config may seem complex at first, but
it is the right place to do it: it offers you a way of having
system-wide settings which can be overridden by users ("users?
What is users, anyway?" ;-)
Plus the probability that (re-) installing some package will
obliterate (or worse: half-obliterate) your work is way lower.
