Isn't a list of apps that run at startup a "system setting"?. And why hide gnome-session-properties, for heaven' s sake?

Found the reason why!.

The file gnome-session-properties.desktop in
/usr/share/applications

contains:
NoDisplay=True

If I change it to NoDisplay=False
then under Applications, its new icon shows up, dubbed "Startup applications". (Also shows up if on the search box you type "Gnome", or "Startup".

Should I file a bug fix about this? Even if it wont get fixed until F18... Having this functionality but hiding the icon is criminal. I went down in circles with Google searches for about an hour, fiddiling with 'alacarte' etc when the functionality was there (gnome-session-properties) but hidden from the Applications view...
