This is what I ended up with:

It seems to work well enough, but feedback and suggestions are always 
welcome.

In the end I don't start dbus-launch in /etc/gdm/Xsession, despite the 
suggestions I found online.  It seems it's started anyway, and running 
as the logged in user, so why complicate things even further?
