Where is this setting ?

I'm not a user of saved desktops.

But, I just confirmed that if I have the setting set for "Restore previous session" and if I have a window
rule for firefox to be in a certain desktop it will start in that desktop upon logout/login.

I have also found, while testing in a VM, that if you don't have "KillUserProcesses=yes" set in
/etc/systemd/logind.conf you can get into a situation where if you logout/login it can result in
a black-screen.

Another quirk, even though I'm not running dolphin it gets started in the Desktop I was in when I
logged out.

All of this may explain why I don't use that "feature".
