Essentially it just loads a couple extra modules into PA (keeping in mind that that PA is a per-user daemon but each user can theoretically login on several X11 displays at the same time). One module keeps PA alive for the duration of the X11 session (normally PA will exit after a period of inactivity). A second module publishes connection credentials in the x11 root window. This allow us to piggy back on SSH's X11 forwarding so that you can SSH to a remote machine and run an X11 app and have it display on your local machine but also produce sounds on your local machine too (assuming you've enabled networking support in paprefs). These modules can't be loaded in default.pa as X11 may not be be present when PA starts up (e.g from a console) so this script is automatically run when the user logs into X (via XDG autostart .desktop files).
