While that would technically work, it's a bit of a kludge, and I'm not
fond of those. Perhaps I should have specified an _X-related_ config
file (by a definition in which xinit, including startx, qualifies as
being X-related).

(Sorry if this looks like moving the goalposts - that's not my
intention, I'm just trying to clarify what I was originally asking for.)
