Public bug reported: Xsession(5) still says that $HOME/.xsession can contain commands for invoking X clients. But in natty $HOME/.xsession does not get run.
(/etc/X11/Xsession sources all the scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ and /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50x11-common_determine-startup only sources the user's .xsession if the STARTUP variable has not been set. But it has been set, to "gnome-session --session=ubuntu".)
