Yes should be easy enough to do with something like: mv
~/.config/xfce4/xfconf ~/xfconf.bak
Open to better suggestions.

To be confirmed, but having xfconfd killed / not running,  seems to be
a necessary step to correctly regenerate the config files. Also
xfconfd is restarted as soon as xfce4-panel is reloaded and personally
I did not experience side effects although I cannot completely exclude
that.

I am not  good at this stuff but I will wrap my head around it to find
a way ;-). Should we include this script in the panel package or
branding package?

I don't  know how long I need to get this one ready but I think I
should push the update to Factory ASAP first, or more people will
update and risk to mess up their configs.

Cheers,
