There is a solution from Adam Tkac[1].
If you use the aforementioned line in the pam's settings file, you'll
actually get the session ID - c# (loginctl) ;)
Cause there isn't (un)locking issues at all within an Xfce session[2],
you don't have to.
As for the service file note, it stands still.

~/.vnc/xstartup
#!/bin/sh
exec /bin/sh /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc
