Under what circumstances does this occur? I see the program in question
is caja. What desktop environment is this in, and how can this bug be
reproduced?

(I assume it's either GNOME, one of the various GNOME forks, or XFCE,
based on the D-Bus APIs used in the function that contains that warning.)

I don't know the session manager API well enough to know immediately
whether this message indicates a bug in the session manager, the
application, GTK, or something else.
