Ah, right, I forgot this part.

I'm convinced, marking the ticket as resolved. Thanks for clarifying.
Would you happily add a sub-sub-[...]-section to contribute/design,
that points to the relevant added script, and documents this?
I would see it in "3.3 Internationalization".

Ah, also: any specific reason to use /etc/X11/Xsession.d/, while we've
moved all such scripts to /usr/local/*bin/ + /etc/xdg/autostart/ ?
Not that I care much, just curious.

Go, go, go :)
