The whole tab is on crack imho. I have used gnome for a few years, 
and never used any of these options. I still do not understand [4].
Sorry guys, but what is the session list but a list of string? How do
you use this stuff?

Please do not remove this tab. It's the only sane way to allow people 
to add stuff like "galeon --server" to their session without the need 
to understand how .xinitrc or .xsession works.

What is this tab usefull for? An (incomplete) process listing? Wow I managed 
to kill my windowmanager by klicking "Remove"... cool! 
What about the "Style"-option menu? I can understand "Normal" and "Restart"
but what does the last two options do? Do I care as a normal user?

I suggest dropping this tab completely.
