Comment 4 for bug 1838916

Thanks for the writeup.

I think what you're saying is the GNOME desktop setting would be system-wide, in particular affecting the login screen - while Caffeine as a per-user startup program is targeting just for when you're logged in.
And while a per-user option would be ideal, it does not exist.

I do see your point in that case.

Perhaps in 10 years GNOME will be mature enough for the devs to put in the effort to easily set startup tasks separately to the launcher selection ;-). Until then, definitely much bigger fish to fry.
