The code looks good to me, didn't spot anything, even if we don't have the gnome-session changesinstalled. Thanks for the extensive testing!

32+Description: Ignore session IDs ending with "-xorg" under X11
33+ This is done under the assumption that they are meant for Wayland only.
34+ It is expected that a session called "foo" would have a "foo.desktop" file
35+ under wayland-sessions/, a fallback "foo.desktop" under xsessions/, and
36+ another "foo-xorg.desktop" under xsessions (that may simply be a symlink
37+ to "foo.desktop") specifically for Wayland.
