I already opened 
https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-session/-/merge_requests/20 , 
but because it will not reach stable without release team approval and 
the next point release window isn't until November, I haven't 
prioritized testing or uploading it as a higher priority than the 
various other things I need to spend time on - especially since the 
stable release team seems more likely to accept changes that have 
already migrated to testing.

If I'm reading correctly, probably the only difference between my 
version and yours is that you added org.gnome.Yelp.desktop? I don't 
think that change is necessary for stable, since stable's yelp package 
has yelp.desktop, and the newer upstream release that has 
org.gnome.Yelp.desktop will not get uploaded to stable.
