With the SQLite backend this surely is the case.

With PostgreSQL, you get this:

"""
x2goterminate-session mga-54-1379970522_stRTERMINAL_dp24
DBD::Pg::st execute failed: ERROR:  permission denied for relation  
sessions_view at /usr/share/perl5/X2Go/Server/DB/PostgreSQL.pm line 417.
Died at /usr/share/perl5/X2Go/Server/DB/PostgreSQL.pm line 417.

sessions_view at /usr/share/perl5/X2Go/Server/DB/PostgreSQL.pm line 328.
Died at /usr/share/perl5/X2Go/Server/DB/PostgreSQL.pm line 328.
"""

Nowadays, the x2gocleansessions daemon script can handle  
suspend/terminate through a change in the session database.

x2goterminate-session and x2gosuspend-session should utilize this new feature.
