Is it possible to long-term-find another mechanism for this? The  
server code surely needs a fallback in case old clients are  
connecting, but for newer clients could there be a change in this?  
What people also requested from me is a custom icon for rootless  
session window (i.e. if firefox is launch in a rootless window then  
there should be a firefox icon in the window frame (and taskbar), not  
an X2Go icon... But that's already another cup of tea...

This would require to store the session window title in the X2Go  
database... (I think).

Greets,
