Bug Description

When using
fbautostart --noexec

I get a printout as follow:

$ fbautostart --noexec
Warning: In noexec mode.
Launching on behalf of FLUXBOX
Would have run: zeitgeist-datahub
Would have run: ejecter
...

It would be nice for debugging to get additional info:

1) directory of .desktop file
2) name of .desktop file
3) if not run, reason why

So the output could look as follow:

/etc/xdg/autostart
zeitgeist.desktop -- Would have run: zeitgeist-datahub
...

~/.config/autostart
ejecter.desktop -- not run because OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE;
skype.desktop -- Would have run: skype
...

This would make it much easier to see which .desktop files are not executed and why.

Thanks,

Rainer
