I do not know the answer to your question. But, if I had the question
you have I would.
1. Make a snapshot of my Xfce VM (if I cared about the user account)
2. Start the Xfce VM
3. Login to the test account
4. Do the dump/load
5. Check the results to see what was done.
I did do a dump. It described all the panels but
not what is populated inside them.
I am still hunting
