they are, if I don't suck too much of your time?

Basically session management is known to not work correctly and have all
sort of issues. There is different bugs open upstream (and on the
distribution side too) and I closed that one because one extra bug is
not useful for that, it just make the list of bugs longer and harder to
work with

explain people how to make their programs start automatically at next
login?

The best way is probably to fix the documentation

The gnome-session-properties capplet is supposed to work correctly
