> The tests I done shows that the SM connection is not closed properly, ever.

Even if you add an SmcCloseConnection() call to x_session_close()?
Seemed to work for me.

> As for exposing SM to lisp, that might not be a bad idea, but it would be better to implement and expose the newer d-bus based SM than the old X based SM. The latter will probably go away within a couple of years. Gnome only has a compability layer for it on top of the d-bus SM.

That could maybe be done in pure Elisp, I suppose. Maybe I'll try that
if I have some spare time.
