The restart issue of reconnecting is a known issue, the code just isn't
written yet.  This will be in a future release of libindicator.

What I'd like to track down in this bug is why, in some cases, it seems
that indicator-session-service isn't starting.  Unfortunately it seems
that bonobo swallows a bunch of the logging messages.

Here's a shot in the dark :)  Put this in a .desktop file
in .config/autostart/

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Test
Exec=/usr/lib/libindicator/indicator-loader /usr/lib/indicators/3/libsession.so

That'll start a small window with the session indicator in it, hopefully
then some error messages will end up in .xsession-errors
