Is this the right place to comment on the indicator-applet-session as well?

Indicator-applet-session was at least usable in karmic on a vetrical panel. You could access the shutdown/logout/lock-screen UI.

In lucid, the "shutdown/logout/lock" UI is hidden by the vertical panel, meaning that you can't even get out of a logged-in session. AND the system-menu doesn't have those elements, because the indicator-applet-session has them, even though they're not accessable.

Now we have a regression that causes people migrating from a working karmic setup to a lucid setup they can't log out of, suspend, lock, reboot, or shutdown...

I commented to that effect on #410254, but that's marked invalid/won't-fix, so i thought it might be more relevent here.
