Thank you Hermann, that was the thought I had. With good luck the HOME variable might do the job. HOME=/path/to/session/directory application but the thread on the Arch Linux mailing list already showed, that the only way seems to be to write a function call that will replace the getpwuid() calls by LD_PRELOAD. If a session manager would do this, I suspect issues for applications that always should use the original home directory, it at least would cause a race condition. Btw. I'm not willing to relearn C at the moment and so I'm unable to use LD_PRELOAD, so I still need to search the config and than copy and restore it, when switching between sessions.
