Adding to Unity in my opinion is a bad idea, its very rare to add/remove
programs to/from startup there is no need to clutter up Unity with this.
Improving the existing startup application editor is where improvements
should be made. I may look into this again when I have some free time,

Any news here?
As Tomas rightly noted it's even more complicated in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
than it was back in lucid, as you can't drag from the launcher and
dragging from the dash is more tricky because you have to findle with
the window position.

I'm not sure about Gnome 3, but in the Unity launcher, when you right-
click on an application, you get a binary option (checked or not) Keep
in launcher. If there were another option added to this list called
something like Autostart or Open on start-up, it would be fantastic.
Checking it would

The discussions about how the 'open with' system works is interesting
and important but I can't see what it has to do with this bug.
Remember this bug is about making it easier and more discoverable to add
applications to the list run at login.

Okay, I've read upstrema and can now see what you're getting at. Using
the 'open with' API as a way to select application for adding to the
list - did I get that right?

Thats correct.
As I see it there is two parts to this bug.
1. Make the Autostart application easier to find. This is done in Oneric
as it is now in the dropdown menu used to logout, shutdown etc.
2. Make it easier to actually add an application. This is where the open
with dialog comes in. This
1) From the original report I think is not valid as there is a list of
startup application displayed in Startup Applications itself. I think
there is no need to display in other menus that an application is run at
startup as its not part of that menus context.

I suggest at least two ways,
1) Same as above, use the open-with dialog.
1) Make it possible to drop an application icon onto the app and make it
autostart. Dragging out would remove an app from auto-starting.

Bug #382280 has been made a duplicate of this bug. Startup

daemons, applets and processes started by Ubuntu in a default install.

It seems the Startup Applications Preferences thing implements option
no. 2 exactly, so I think the Ubuntu bug can be closed. However, I'm
reluctant to close it since the GNOME bug is still open. Pedro, do you
have any idea why that is the case?
