           Summary: Feature Request: Settings option to completely disable
                    restoring saved sessions.
    Classification: Xfce

On a recent install of Debian testing Xfce. Found that I couldn't disable saved
sessions and followed a posts advice to delete ~/.cache/sessions. This worked.
But a couple days later I started encountering lock ups when Xfce loaded two
instances of Kwin because I must have inadvertently checked the 'Save Session'
checkbox on logout (too easily done with a mouse slip). Remedying the situation
seemed to be only possible by clearing all my preferred startup applications,
saving the session and logging out, and now i'm relying particially on my saved
sessions and my autostart apps. This seems less than ideal as again easily
breakable in the future. 

I would prefer a way where I could completely disable session cache and instead
rely on my autostart applications as they are listed very clearly and per my
explicit specifications. 

If this is not the correct place for a feature request I apologize.

Thanks, 

Happy Xfce User,

James
