Hmmm .... why doesn't it work reliably? Is the reason, that we don't know when the autostart is ready/finished? If this is the reason, then the phases also won't work.
Take for example volume restauration: It must have FINISHED, before the login sound is played. How can you guarantee that? At the moment I cannot, but hope to do so in KDE4 (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91267).
