I know it is only a minor thingy, but I prefer to signal it.

Since xfce4-terminal is able to use the "--drop-down option", I always use it instead of installing another app for having a drop-down terminal.

However, when the option "Automatically save session on logout" (or something similar, sorry, my locale is not english) is activated in xfce4-session-settings, and I have an active drop-down terminal on logout, it is restored as a normal one.
(Without the drop-down flag)

In the list of the running  processes it is correctly registered as "xfce4-terminal --drop-down".
In the same time, in the "xfce4-session-settings", under the session tab, the same process number is registered as "Xfce terminal".

Is it possible, that the session registers it in a wrong way?

It happens with 

Linux hostname 4.8.6-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Oct 31 18:51:30 CET 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux

xfce4-session 4.12.1-4
xfce4-terminal 0.8.1-1
