Bug Description
README.Debian says:
Upon startup, gnome-session starts the following applications:
- Saved session: if you have saved a session, it is located in
~/.config/
session saving or manually save it in the "Startup Applications"
configuration applet.
But, as per bug #771896, this feature is currently disabled, and has been replaced by an environment variable, GNOME_SESSION_SAVE:
gnome-session (3.2.1-0ubuntu7) precise; urgency=low
* debian/
- add GNOME_SESSION_SAVE environment variable for people wanting to
use the save session still, knowing that it can break your system
if used unwisely (LP: #771896)

Please could you reflect this in README.Debian?

See also bug #771896: there is confusion over how to use the GNOME_SESSION_SAVE fix. It seems fairly straightforward for gdm users, but perhaps it's not as obvious for lightdm users? I don't know, but again, this is something that should be explained in README.Debian.
