[SUGGESTION] ~/.X.d could be changed in ~/.config/autostart

~/.xsession could process also /usr/local/etc/xdg/autostart entries

Do we have to implement every single freedesktop standard?
I've learned what .xsession is for years ago. But now I have to search in /usr/local/etc/xdg/autostart and .config/autostart too? What is xdg anyway?

xdg = X Desktop Group aka freedesktop.org

I see a potential conflict: only users of big DEs would put files there, but those DEs handle the autostart themselves. If it was checked for in .xsession, the apps would be launched twice for big DEs.
