Added the line X-LightDM-DesktopName=GNOME to my
/usr/share/xsessions/xmonad.desktop file, that looks now like this:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=XMonad
Comment=Lightweight tiling window manager
Exec=xmonad-session
Icon=xmonad.png
Type=XSession
X-LightDM-DesktopName=GNOME

Now the panels work.

Title:
   Most settings panels suddenly missing from gnome-control-center

Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I launch it from my default (non-root) user account, the gnome-control-center is missing all settings panels, except "Printers" and "Software & Updates".
  Launching it with a commandline parameter to open a specific settings panel fails, too:
    $ gnome-control-center display
    ** (gnome-control-center.real:10217): WARNING **: Could not find settings panel "display"

  I can only access the panels that aren't listed by launching gnome-
  control-center as root.

  I previously had access to the panels that are now only displayed for
  root, but I can't pinpoint what caused them to vanish. Is there
  anything I could do to find and fix whatever caused this?

  I have already reported this bug on bugzilla.gnome.org[1], but apparently version 3.6.3 of the gnome-control-center is no longer supported by the GNOME developers and neither are Ubuntu's patched versions of it.
  [1]: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734349

  I'm using Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 with i3 as my window manager, but with
  the gnome-settings-daemon running to handle keyboard shortcuts and
  display configuration.
