That's true, if you remove the "indicator session" applet from a panel,
the System menu shows the upstream GNOME configurations, i.e. menu
entries to lock the screen, logout (logout or change user) and shutdown
(shutdown, reboot, suspend).

Unfortunately I've no confirm on this. I'll try on a virtual machine, I
hope to find some time...

It seems that Ubuntu and Canonical provided a graphical user interface
for guest session only for "indicator session" applet.

But, basically, that menu entry should simply launch the
script /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-launch

You could try adding a launcher for this script

The guest session is not related to any existing user account, but in
order to use a guest session you need to have a "real" user account
logged in.

We could say that running a guest session the operating system adds a
temporay (and restricted) user with a temporary home folder. When you
log out from gust session, both temporary user and folder are removed.
