gvfs does not use xfce4-session spawned ssh-agent
This Bug is revival of https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13486 and its ancestor https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/46398
The effect has come back: SSH_AUTH_SOCK has gone from systemd environment unless You use the workaround:
~$ dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd SSH_AUTH_SOCK
within a running session. After
~$ pkill gvfs
and restarting thunar it is set and in function.
It looks like the patch https://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/commit?id=2cf63e66c0285aaeee76155f463c85d04da6addc
isn't in effect any more
