When Gnome disables an autostart entry, it adds the flag
"X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false". Kde does not understand this flag.

When Kde disables an autostart entry, it adds the flag "Hidden=true". The
problem is that Gnome uses this flag to mark autostart entries deleted. From
gnome-sessions source:

/* Two possible cases:
* a) We want to remove a system wide startup desktop file.
*    We can't do that, so we will create a user desktop file
*    with the hidden flag set.
* b) We want to remove a startup desktop file that is both
*    system and user. So we have to mark it as hidden.
*/

I think Gnome and Kde hackers need to reach agreement here.
