Upstream should provide that migration script, ideally (like was done for migration from MCS to xfconf).Is there something new on this? I'd like to make an upload to experimental, but at one point it'd be nice to be able to test it without losing all the settings in non Xfce apps.
I know of no upstream progress on this, or if they ever intend to do something for it. It's not exactly the same as MCS to Xfconf, since most of Xfce itself doesn't even use gsettings, as far as I know just mousepad.
As far as accidental loss of settings, that's unlikely as one has to set the env var still, and even then the old settings will remain intact, just unused. Still not ideal, but not as unfortunate as it could be.
