Summary:                    panel and desktop response while doing autostart
Description: 
I'm not sure if this can be helped.
At the end of the login process, the Autostart apps get launched. At this
point, panel and desktop are already running. But they are actually not
usable until the Autostart stuff is completely started, no clicks are
possible, not desktop right-click, the panel does not autohide. So xfce is
actually not usabel during that time.
In my case Autostart contains some bigger applications like email client,
calendar app, ..., so it takes some time to start them.
As a said, I don't know if there can be done anything about it, but I have
the strong impression, that this was not so in earlier versions. The panel
and desktop responded slower, of course, but at least they were usable.

I have almost the latest CVS versions of xfce4-panel and xfdesktop
installed (one or two days old).
