Bug Description

FIGURED IT OUT:
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/user/.config/gtg/tasks.conf'
For some reason i didnt have correct file permissions there. The issue also caused cpu spike when editing tasks, and occasionally made gtg unresponsive.

Maybe gtg should check permissions for such files, and if they aren't correct alert the user to prevent such issues.

ISSUE:
1/ Start GTG
2/ Deselect notification are and tomboy plugins (currently selected).
(notification area icon disappears, and plugins seem to be disabled)
3/ quit gtg
4/ start gtg. the disabled plugins are now enabled

UPDATE: if i check any, they are unchecked after restart. so, basically plugin enablings/disablings work only until quit, when they are lost and default back to tomboy, and notifications for some reason.

Possibly could have something to do with gtg quiting improperly at some point?

gtg 0.2

im not sure how to figure out how to reproduce it with debugging data. first time reporting a bug and i have a feeling i did it wrong. :P
