Sebatien,
Would you be kind enough to point us to the mailing list or WIKI that discusses 
these upstream issues?

Per the August 8th changelog entry within the gnome-session source indicates 
this was fixed.
Traffic on the desktop-devel-list is somewhat sparse after the initial proposal 
to revamp gnome-session to dbus instead of xsmp.  Traffic to gnome-list 
concerning the problem seems to be 2.22 oriented.
Nothing is mentioned in the Gnome 2.24 showstopper review.

A quick review of the desktop files generated for gnome-terminal
indicate that gnome-terminal does not currently have AutostartCondition
nor X-GNOME-Autostart-*.

Reading through the proposal thread 
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2008-June/msg00210.html 
indicates that xsmp was completely dropped in favor of the new session protocol 
with no concern over legacy apps, including core gnome apps such as 
gnome-terminal
This is not "known upstream issues."  This is "This will never work for legacy 
applications."  A warning of some sort in /usr/share/doc/gnome-session 
directing annoyed users to the guilty parties would have been appreciated.
