GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 330583
Removing program from session isn't permanent

I have workrave being started when I login, and no longer want it running, so I went to the session properties dialog, and removed it, that worked fine for that session, however the next login it re-appeared. It seems as though the ~/.gnome2/session file is never updated.
Yes, you have to save your session somehow after removing a program from the session. I agree that this UI is pretty bad.
gnome-session-properties is no longer included in gnome-session.
