Public bug reported:

We have several applications that are autostarted with the typical 
XDG/Freedesktop mechanism. These appear under the "Autostart" pane in LXQt 
Session Settings. LXQt Session also supports something called LXQt Modules 
which are shown on the initial "Basic Settings" pane. With this, applications 
can be started and stopped right within the dialog and there is more robust 
handling and feedback to the user when there are problems. More on that here:
https://lxqt-project.org/blog/2022/09/20/about-modules-in-lxqt/

Only one addition to the .desktop file is required to essentially convert 
normal autostarts to LXQt modules:
X-LXQt-Module=true

I propose we apply this to all of our autostarted applications.
