+This method returns the name of the desktop environment currently
+running in a Unix desktop. Currently only "KDE" or "GNOME" are
+supported and the code uses the X11 session protocol vendor name
+to figure out, which desktop environment is running. The method
+returns an empty string otherwise and on all other platforms.
