With KDE going on, the Debian Edu settings got more and more outdated and non-functional (with menu-reordering left as only use case). With the Buster release desktop-profiles were disabled (via setting 'PERSONALITY=sheep' in /etc/default/desktop-profiles). Yes, while XDG can do menu-reordering, other tweaking can be done using xsession scripts. For Debian Edu, these scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.de are just links to scripts in /usr/share/debian-edu-config set by Cfengine conditionally, mostly for temporary workarounds like those for Xfce in Buster.
