This is a rather boring topic, but it is relatively simple work that is
easily splittable and well-suited for a UDS discussion.
It is useful for people to be able to set up particular applications to
launch whenever they log in.
In theory, the "Startup Applications" preferences would cater for this.
In practice, "Startup Aplications" in a default Ubuntu installation is
filled with random system components, making it hard for people to tell
whether they have added any items themselves.
UDS would be a good opportunity for relevant contributors to
* review each item in the default list
* identify whether it should be graphically configurable at all
* if so, identify where that configuration should be better placed
* allocate the work of moving each component out.
Thanks
