Well, I am not convinced it is necessary to instantiate
everything. People can do that if they really really want to make things
work to allow one local user to run multiple sessions, but I am pretty
sure that should be out of scope for GNOME. GNOME components should just
be normal services that are started on the user bus and which find their
display from XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.

Hmm, could one set XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$UID/second-session and
have multiple sessions that way?
