Just to make sure, does the button persist after running imports.misc.systemActions.getDefault()._updateLogout() in looking glass?

So I tried dropping setting XDG_DATA_DIRS in the gdm.nix, but it doesn't find any sessions. I'm not sure why that is, though. Maybe it's because it's a system service so it has the very minimal environment?

I did 20.03 just because it looks like a safe bugfix. I have no idea if this was in issue in 20.03, though.

It created infinite recursion when using LXQt, since lxqt module uses config.system.path in services.xserver.desktopManager.session. config.system.path is a buildEnv that depends on environment.systemPackages.

We either cannot install the sessions environment.systemPackages or must forbid sessions from depending on config.system.path. The latter does not really sound reasonable so I guess the only solution would be to add the sessions to XDG_DATA_DIRS explicitly.

Reverted in 2a4607f (master), 9ca3b74 (release-20.09) and 8fa9a8a (release-20.03).
