Don't know what policy thinks about this, but from my own experience: .xinitrc is used when you use a plain startx or similar to start your xserver and related things. .xsession should be executed by your session manager (gdm, kdm, xdm) after the user has logged in. I'm not quite sure where there is a relationship between both, maybe one uses another as a fall back. For more info about this I advice you to read the docs of gdm, kdm, xdm .. whatever.
