Description Federico Mena Quintero 2005-12-05 22:11:35 UTC
Nautilus should not open a window for $HOME when it is restarted due to abnormal
termination.

I looked a bit into this, and it doesn't look like there's a way for it to tell
if it was (re)started upon login, or as the result of being killed.

Restarting is fine; it's the "window coming out of nowhere" that Novell's users
complained about.  The bug in particular was of someone playing with Metacity's
"Force Quit" command, and being quite surprised about the $HOME window popping up.
