Original Description
Description
When connecting with ssh to a machine that has an X11 session running, try to find which DISPLAY we can query.
Features
It only detects the DE for now.
Issues
The KDE_SESSION_VERSION property doesn't seem to exist on my session, so I had to check another one which doesn't mention the version.
TODO
Reuse the found DISPLAY to detect other components?

Re-opening — initial closure was premature. The upstream PR code IS retrievable. Will process properly.
