Nope, I think that's a genuine bug.  I reported it to the bug-tracker 
several weeks ago, but haven't heard anything.  (BTW, are developers' 
messages when bugs are fixed forwarded to the person who reports a 
bug?)

The latest gnome-core release announcement indicated that there had 
been significant changes in the session management code; I haven't 
had a chance to install it yet, so I can't say if they fixed it.  
(The ChangeLog indicates that the GUI was redone, which might have, 
though.)
