what is keeping per-user state outside of user's $HOME ?

[John Ellson]

I have a problem when my userid, and only my userid, has no Lock Screen 
menu item or applet.

I reported this problem against gnome-screensaver (BZ# 457147) but its 
not progressing so perhaps the problem should be reported  against a 
different component?

What is really weird, and bothersome, is that this state (no Lock Screen 
menu item) doesn't get reset by:
    rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity

Where else is per-user state kept ?


My system is x86_64 Rawhide.
