Public bug reported:

Affects: gnome-session (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
This is not a exactly bug in one of the gnome components but in the way they're set up in Ubuntu, I think:
Usually, sessions are not saved; however, when the session ends due to critical laptop battery, the session is saved and then you're stuck with it forever, or at least until you find a way to delete it. Since normally sessions are not explicitly mentioned, I guess that new users will not even know what a session is and why the same programs keep starting up when they log in.
Two possible solutions are either to disable automatic session saving or to make auto saved session load only once.
