Please find clarifications below. The very same text was added to

I set up a root password with @rootpw@ on kernel command line, then
when the greeter was ready I went to a text console, logged in,
changed @.xsessionrc@ and launched @gdbus@ from that text console

This call happens on the *system* bus which is started at this point.

I set up a root password and logged in a text console as above but
instead of launching @gdbus@ I edited @locale.conf@.

Yes.
