[Bug 64720] Programs launched with hotkeys are not session managed

Public bug reported:

Because of dbus starting gnome-settings-daemon and dbus being the one to
also start gnome-session, programs launched by hotkeys handled by g-s-d
get no session support (e.g. rhythmbox) because they miss the
SESSION_MANAGER env variable. This also prevents the shutdown hotkey
from working.

A solution would be to start dbus from gnome-session. See Gnome bug
#336237 for a possible patch.
