session not saved

[Teunis Peters]

Session is not saved anymore for any applications on logout. Affects since 11.

Most particularly affects gnome-terminal, but applies to all formerly-running apps that were saved to start.

10.4: logout, session saved. Running programs restored, terminal windows restored.

Now: none are restored. 100% failure.

If even a mechanism to work with was documented, that would possibly help. While it won't get formerly restored apps such as skype, pidgin and the like to start automatically as preferred, I could at least fix the otherwise broken gnome-terminal.
