This is necessary for compatibility and it brings support for many apps hardcoding GNOME support but also apps written in GTK (Gtk.Application taps into org.gnome.Session to register applications for a clean shutdown and for inhibition). It doesn't conflict with GNOME or Cinnamon (which both use the same name) since it's on the SessionBus. It makes mate-session aware of programs such as gedit, etc.. which might need to save people's work before logout, it brings support for totem inhibiting the session etc etc..
