I had a similar problem with WindowMaker. WindowMaker was to save session on
exit and saved gmc and pannel as tasks. Then gnome-session also started
these. I cursed gnome (big problems trying to get it to work), until I
figured it out, turned WindowMaker's sessions off and cleared programs from
WindowMaker first. I haven't played with E, but doesn't it do it's own
session management?

Blame the window managers not gnome.
A lot of aesthetics are supposed to be fixed with April Gnome (which I don't
think is going to make April) ;-). I'm not brave enough to try it yet as
unstable.
Will work for .sig
