[X2Go-User] X2go irritating System policy

[Alexanderstr Miete]

Dear Ulrich and developers
Thank you for your reply. So as discussed option a) connecting with "Custom
Desktop" will start a NEW session and results in permission prompts, which
are not the case with option b.
Most users I believe would like to feel as if they are sitting in front of
their machine, hence this behaviour undermines this goal.

Any idea how a user could still connect with  "Custom Desktop" Command:
MATE, but solve the privilige issues?
Thanks
