Unfortunately, shell script was wrong and blino send me the patch, which means
that for Gnome the old behavior will be back.
As fcrozat said, gnome can have a new system probably, but for have the same

similar to the env var set by kde, KDE_FULL_SESSION.

If something equivalent exists in a gnome session, would be ok to add in the
