The splash screen is the only application not being refreshed? Anyway it's run
early in the session, so I miss your point wrt. the "dynamic"change.

I dont have a .Xresources. I start Xfce using the Xfce session stuff, meaning
it ends up running /etc/xdg/xfce/xinitrc, where the merge is done early in the
startup process. I don't know how it'll behave if you only run xfce4-session
(using for example the x-session-manager alternative).
