Bug Description

This was already discussed in bug 277786, but the fix there is wrong.

A gconf key was added for a quiet startup. But starting gnome-do from autostart and manually starting gnome-do (from a menu item, eg) are two completely different use cases, and both follow the gconf setting right now.

What most people want is:
 + quiet mode for autostart
 + no quiet mode for manual start

So I really think the --quiet command line should be back, and the autostart desktop file should use it (while the normal desktop file shouldn't).

This updated patch also handles the case where autostart is changed from the prefs dialog.

This seems like a perfectly reasonable request. I'll fold it in next time I go Do hacking, probably this weekend.
