Neither would exist, you would create a .xinitrc file, or copy .desktop
files into ~/.config/autostart . But the easiest thing to do, as pointed
out later in the thread, is just run 'gnome-session-properties' .

Mclasen tells me it's hidden on purpose, btw, because it's considered
kinda deprecated / not something they want to make obvious any more.
