I think mix plugins from system and user profiles is a bad idea, the
system profile tend to be updated less than the user profile, so there
maybe some ABI problems between the xfce-panel in the system profile and
its plugins in the user profile due to mismatched versions.  

Does install both ‘xfce4-panel’ and ‘xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin’ into the
user profile works (hopeful a system xfce4 session will first pickup a
user installed xfce4-panel)?

Installing both 'xfce4-panel' and 'xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin' into the
user profile does work!  Is there a way to make clear to users and
administrators that xfce4-panel and its plugins should both be
installed at the user or system level to ensure proper function?  I
don't think it's obvious since our Xfce desktop service implicitly
installs the xfce4-panel.

Okay, but I guess that will be some problem too, since then
X_XFCE4_LIB_DIRS would contain both system and user paths...
