Yes, I did think of that, but it's a bit rubbish isn't it!  :-)

More to the point I'd *really* like the session autostarts to happen
before the "Session and Startup"->"Application Autostart".  This would
seem to be an obvious requirement as just about everything in
"Application Autostart" is something that just does checks in the
background and it matters not one bit if it starts ten minutes after
the system starts up.
