Your analysis makes a lot of sense.

Indeed, we have a problem there. The `emacs --daemon' is not tied to
a particular display, so it should not shutdown in response to such
SM events. OTOH, many users use "emacs --daemon" only for their
current session. So I can't think of any way to resolve this, short of
making it a config var, like in your patch.
Looking at your patch, I like the idea of exposing the session-start/end
to Elisp, but I know too little about this area to really review
your patch. Could someone else take a look at it?
Stefan
