Ok, I want to give Unity a chance, but I insist on having a decent panel with taskbar, so I add xfce4-panel to the session which works fine.

Now I want to get rid of the top Unity panel. How can I stop it from being loaded during session startup? System-wide I tracked it down to /usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.canonical.Unity.Panel.Service.service, but ideally I would do that only for specific users.

If nobody knows, and as a related question, how can I intercept the DBUS session startup and for example provide my own Panel.Service.service?
