I don't understand where this is useful unless you have a broken setup to begin with.

Either you have your XDG paths set up properly for all users at which point you don't need this.
Or you have DBus setup to load apps with a missing env, which is clearly a silly thing to do.

This patch will make things to work in the Plasma 5 env; but it'll still be broken if you ran this from other desktops which makes the setup wrong.
