Yeah... this is the only way to go... session management just reduces a need
for people to THINK about how they use their computer. I've spend a
considerable number of hours (cumulative, not all at once) considering how I
can effectively setup my desktop, as well as make it look good. I've got
everything the way I like it (well, since I've upgraded to Debian,
everything is cosher except I'm missing the don't-maximize-over-the-slit
patch *shrug*), and the most beautiful thing is that everything starts when
my window manager starts... and it all shows up in the same place (man,
bbappconf, even in it's sub-alpha version, is an amazing program... bblaunch
is also nice because it doesn't FORCE apps to be a certain way).
